Maturing Poet When fountain pen replaced the quill, It was touted a sure success. The ball point pen succeeding this, Hailed as a wonderment, no less. The once marvelous typewriter Has into history faded. Computer purchased yesterday Is fast becoming outdated. If my poems were as clever And smart, as instruments I use, My writings would be exquisites, Not one editor could refuse. William Shakespeare would be passe And I'd be "Poet of the Day"! |

lol Joyce. If only the equipment ensured good poetry. Alas, the quill is as good as any instrument if we but have the right words to record... ![]() the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |
