Poetry

I am very pleased to publish two poems, it gratifies me to know that my dollars spent on the education of my remarkable children have not been wasted. 

The Poetry Reader
By Andrew Hardwicke-Brown

If you could do anything what would it be?
I would be someone who read poetry

Sonnets, Hiaku, I'd read them all
Reading poetry would be a ball
 
Reading free verse I would do just fine
I would take control and make it mine
 
If I were to be a poety reader I would not pout
But unfortunately for me I am just a LOUT. 



More prose for the poetry reader
by Michael Hardwicke Brown

Though a lout I certainly am 
Still I dream to be

A most articulate and eloquent man
Reading the  most expressive poetry

Alas, recently my hopes have been dashed
and I realized I am not worse off dead

I got drunk, slipped on a step at Tiffs, crashed
bruising several ribs and hitting my head

Now I'm rendered immobile, in utter pain and disgrace
With a monument of my stupidity placed upon my face


Comments:
Kudos, both poems show a touch of true wit

and to rhyme is not easy in Can Lit

But they are up to the task, and what's more

It arose cause of a man on the floor.
