I read some poems by the Poet Laureate

Of the United States, Donald Hall.

They were interesting, to say the least,

Some two hundred works about life,

Living, and quite a few about death.

Interesting compilations,

Observations and generalizations.

To say that I enjoyed them

Would be the least of what I would say.

I read some poetry by the current Poet Laureate,

Excellent observations and exercises in the written word.

Author's Note: I try to keep up with the Poet Laureates.
