Why?
Cause I like reading it over again
I am not being vain
There is just a little pleasure I gain
from reading what I said before
It is also that I can write down
something that would really sound
trivial in prose, but in this form, profound
I would myself hate to read
some piece of prose that goes on and on
about some lonely village girl's song
worse if she sounds lost and forlorn
But then if someone puts it in this form
I would read most gladly
About dry grass or a dead tree
or some age-old piece of pottery
It is not what you write about, but how you do
It is easy, writing a piece of prose
that is pompous, crude and verbose
But nothing can even come close
To the depth that flows in poetry
That is why.

Btw, I Scribble :P
Well I actually couldnt find anything that rhymes with scribble that I could put in here :P
On a more honest note - I relate the word scribbles only to you Mr.Scribbler.
I have always thought of the word "balderdash" when looking for a word to describe what I write. But I couldnt find a word to rhyme with that either :P
