The Children of Zorro Shall Sing Hard sought words He fought from his pen Taut thoughtful words He brought forth from his pen Unthoughtful terse words He wrought from his steely pen Pretty pretty little words Petty petty little words Coexisting side by side Side by side they dwell His own personal heaven and hell Words of sugar and spice Some good but most not nice ***Listen carefully children*** For the children of Zorro Shall now sing He`s a bad poet Cause his grammar`s grime He`s a bad poet Cause he don`t rhyme rhyme He`s a bad poet Cause his rhythm breaks time Over and over and over again Bad poet ***Listen carefully children*** For the children of the Bard Shall now sing He`s a sad poet Cause his heart`s unsaid He`s a sad poet Nothin but an egghead He`s a sad poet Cause he`s still unread Over and over and over again Sad poet With his hard sought words Spawned from an uncooperative pen |

I like your sense of humor. It's a good poet who will poke fun at himself. Please check your email for a Very Special Welcome to Passions!  |

I loved the word play, humour, intellectual cynicism, vigour, sincerity and success of this poem, but most of all I loved the vibrant life and burst of song and indefatigable optimism. Bravo! Thank you for replying to my Takahira Yashima Hiroyuka Tomita in Archives 43. I have left a reply there for you, but put it in an email too in case you didn't go back there. Owl |

Wow, that is amazing. I am at a loss for words. That's not usual for myself, but there's a first for everything. Amazing |
