Many poets only have one work br Known and remembered after they are gone br The Mona Lisa overshadows all br And many one-time sculptors stand alone. br br If a thousand poets were to write one poem, br A thousand musicians one lovely song br Then millions would enjoy and be fulfilled... br A single write can feed the ages long. br br So if you write one piece that speaks the truth br And satisfies the need for finer art br Then count yourself to be one of the few br Who keep tradition-you have done your part.
