POETS.

The lyrics penned by Bobbie Burns,
With lifting love and longing laden,
In which he voiced his various yearns
For this or that attractive maiden,
Were founded not upon the hope
That he could win them all-the fact is
He merely wrote that sort OF d3pc
To keep In practice.
He sang about a perfect Jane
Far past his power to attain.
The fervent praise of Paradise
That Byron often would outpour
Describing treasures past all price
Upon that far off glorious shore,
Did not, historians will agree
Proceed from any expectation
That Paradise was going to be
His destination.
He knew, contemporaries say
That he was bound the other way.
And so today, when poets sing
OF perfect love--of perfect worth
Or Of perfect anything
That they have found upon this earth
That do not seek attainment of
The subject Of their glowing praises
They merely write because they love
To fashion phrases.
However musical their stuff
It's fifty-fifty bunk and bluff!
