I ask your pardon.

narrative verse rhyming quatrains

I ask your pardon.

 

Methinks the times are out of joint.

I use my poetry to point

 my finger at the things I see

That smack of bigotry to me.

 

I do not claim to be perfect.

That would be too much to expect.

I some times have a biased view

 as every one is prone to do.

 

I know I can rely on you

 to do as you’re entitled to

Point out the errors that I make.

I do not find it hard to take.

 

The good advice that’s offered me

by other poets helpfully.

I am not rigid in my views

 they’re always open to review.

 

The words I write are never meant

 to cause offence I am content.

If I unwittingly upset

the apple cart; you won’t forget.

 

I am a poet just like you

I make mistakes I’m bound to do.

Although I do the best I can

 I’m fallible I’m just a man.

Ego te absolve go thou and sin no more

[Tate Morgan]

Well as a member of the same club I grant you absolution if youll do me the same

[A.Lee]

I really like this. A good message from a poet to anyone and everyone who decides to venture out and read other people's poetry.
