A Poem Very Long

To the children of the world

I'll recite a poem very long;
I'll sit down, end of song.

I'll recite a poem without end;
I will, till the end.

I'll recite a poem very long;
Now if you'll excuse me, so long!

I'll recite a poem without end;
I'll sit down, the end.

I Know Only Poems With Rhyme

To the children of the world

I know only poems with rhyme
That stay in tune with ev’ry clime.
I know only poems with beat
That make me stand up on my feet.
When poets all have breathed their last,
And poems are buried in dust,
Then children will come out in time
To dig the poems, black with grime.
And when the cloud of dust is gone,
And children are through having fun,
They’ll throw away poems like lime
But pick up only those with rhyme.
