Most, if not all of my poems are intended to be centered I know that may seem odd but that is the way I wrote them...
So if you see them in the discussions here think about that...

Hi everyone,
here is a poem I wrote some time ago for fun..

confusion…

’Tis easy to sea,
English does confuse,
Simply wright a word,
Or is it right a word?
Or rite a word?
Write there are four words,
All sound the same,
But used incorrectly,
Confusion results.

Now let’s see,
Wright is a given name,
And of old described a profession that today we name mechanic,
But still in use today,
Do you know a millwright?
And right is a direction or used to express correctness,
Write? Well that’s what we do with a pen or more often of late a computer,
Rite is what we practice in religion,
Especially when we don’t really believe,
Or getting a drivers license is an American rite of passage.

Ah there are more that I could tell,
Words that confuse and confound,
If I did no other work would I do!

Well, it's nice to join a group dedicated to poetry. I haven't really been away, but for some reason my original site disappeared, so I have had to re-join and start over.
