Remember the Poets (Pantoum)

Let’s remember the poets before us

They wrote their verses with rhythmic cadence  

Their verses painted pictures with great curtness

So full of a youthful exuberance

 

They wrote their verses with rhythmic cadence

Metaphors & similes behind ’em   

So full of a youthful exuberance

Remember, we must never forget them

 

Metaphors & similes behind ’em  

Honor those that were so illustrious  

Remember, we must never forget them

In their work, we meet the industrious  

 

Honor those that were so illustrious  

Their verses painted pictures with great curtness  

In their work, we meet the industrious  

Let’s remember the poets before us.
