I write rhymes that make very little sense
I merely do so for my own self defense
when I am old
these lines will be very dear
they will walk me down memory lane
year by blessed y ear
please do not fret if they you do not understand
more than likely my brain and right hand
will be the only ones who fully can
bear with me and interpret your own meaning
even though you will probably not really know
to which end of sanity that I am leaning......

all poetry has part fact,part fiction but always some form of the character of the writer in it. It may be subtle but there. Keep writing this is an excellent piece!
