About me, let me begin
I have never played the violin.
I have used a rolling pin.
Put together a manikin.
Many times, did spin.
Am a man that is thin.
Don't like the taste of gin.
White and sometimes red, my skin.
I have been to Berlin.
I often grin.
I know what to put in it, a pin.
Several times kicked in the shin.
Some description of me herein.
Stayed in a few inns.
Know the definition of brin.
Like when my team wins.
That is me in terms of “in”
Now let’s go through me in “out”
I have had to live without.
Had to listen for the shouts.
I have had many doubts.
When I was young, a scout.
Caught and released some trout.
Stayed awake throughout.
I am not one to tout.
No interest in being devout.
My job made me stout.
Travelled on a ship’s snout.
I have let the dogs out.
Been brought to pout.
I have nothing of which to flout.
Learnt and built my own redoubt.
For the bathroom laid tile and grout.
Never in my life been a lout.
Watched a lot of plants sprout.
That is me in terms of “out”.

That's a lot of ins and outs. A most fun read
After that I would have felt better, but how do you feel? (In monorhyme please🙃)
Enjoyed.
How to answer it for you
All the stuff I already knew
So, it was nothing new
It was all true
Not feeling blue
The poems of me, a view
Like a mental picture drew
I don’t feel anew
Nothing said was untrue
My answer almost through
Of the poems had to review
I feel better like you would do
Kidding - you shouldn't have gone to all that trouble, but thanks anyway.
You're too fun thus delineated to effect, this ramble through the years and days of your life in such a fashion delightful. Thank you very much for sharing! Beautifully rendered with excellent details and a subtle poignancy.
