“Have you ever thought something great,

But realized over time it was nothing but fish bait…”

…Ed..

 

Of late I have been having this dilemma,

Is what I write any good or just enough to give one pause,

Do I write for fun, do I write for recognition,

Sometimes I have found that I even write just because…

 

Am I here on this planet to give mainly pleasure,

I have found by the amount I do so for leisure,

But do they to anyone give insight,

Or merely cause anyone to see into my mind, a fright…

 

I can tell few DO read what I write,

I hope it does not do to their emotions anything contrite,

I live to write, I write to live, I want to give others insight,

Will I be remembered when gone, will my departure give cause to recite…?
