    Lit. 170
    I told myself---
    one class shouldn't be too much
    starting out early morn
    but enough is enough
    morning, noon, and night
    read, read, reading
    great works of Literature
    sometimes I'm not sure
    those kiddy books
    which love and hug me young
    some don't seem so child time
    read, read, reading
    hours for nothing but...
    a fairy tale
    a book of faith
    a nursery rhyme
    cancel all dates
    read, read, reading
    blood shot eyes
    it's getting late
    All in All
    I had fun
    But God bless those days returned---
    sleep, sleep, sleeping


    1989

    Tough class, huh? I'll be sure to evade English Lit.

    No.

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.

    Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
