Some poets today are truly elite
they offer their tomes for review
quite often neglecting the reader alas
while searching for anything new
No wisdom too forthright for
these noble scribes
no comedy writ to amuse
no simple expressions of
love realized
or generous feelings imbued
Oh no they say gladly
we're better than that
we scoff at your sad mercantile
and only desire one purpose in life
to sadden sweet William awhile

Ah poor William. This was fun to read and makes for an interesting entrance onto these blue pages. Welcome and I do indeed hope you find this a pleasant place. And rest assured you will read much of love and humor here as we have many romantics and quite a few wannabe comedians... They know who they are. But if you don't, watch for Balladeer, LongJohn, Toerag and on rare occasion some doofus named Larry C.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

What lovely meter and rhyme. I do believe that you'll find many who could easily compete with ole Will here Welcome to Passions
