What Have I Done For Rhyme

I have been penning stuff since nineteen seventy three And of the rhyming bug i may never be free But a rhymer at best is the best i can be What have i done for rhyme what has rhyme done for me? Addicted to rhyming i do seem this way And i add to my thousands of rhymes every day The rhymes that come to me on notebook i jot down But never for money or rhyming renown For penning thousands of rhymes credit hardly my due Since anybody can write rhyme happens to be true But i do enjoy rhyming the reason i do rhyme on Though my best days in life in the forever gone And though my worth as a rhymer i have reason to doubt There are so many things for to write rhymes about A magpie is warbling on a wattle tree And a magpie lark in the park he is singing pee wee If i said i would quit rhyming this would be a lie Suppose i will be doing it till the day i do die Only in death of the rhyming bug i will be free What have i done for rhyme what has rhyme doe for me?
