A little poem

Well I wrote a little poem and it was published in a book
And I proudly said to everyone "You must go and have a look".
Some rushed out to buy it but others they did not
Some of those who read it said "We just couldn't get the plot!"

I thought I'd sit and write another one to see what they would say,
Some said that it was brilliant - others said "It's just O.K."
It's when I'm feeling lonely or just a little blue
That I write a little poem just to make a smile shine through.

'Cos its hard to write a little poem from an idea in your head
And to try to keep it rhyming with every word that’s said.
When next I write a little poem - and I really think I should,
I hope that you'll enjoy it and think - "Gosh, that was bloody good!!"
