MY FIRST POEM
One day i sat alone
listening to songs over my phone
that was for me a chore
and it made me bore
from my bag a jotter i drew
and scribbled a few romantic brew
i just wrote some lovely words
looking at the chirping birds
had no rest my hands then
the time from i started when
all my feelings i put together
it stood as a memory for ever
we were in school for children's day
you certainly will not believe what i say
i was summoned on the dais with a clap
stood there i was a trembling chap
my first poem i started to read
thought, no one would heed
there was a silence when i finished
my heart sank and courage diminished
just when i wanted to leave the stage
embarrassed , the audience feeling unable to gauge
broke the silence a round of applause
happy i was for being the cause
