There are tons of writers, but it seems too few readers seem to bother taking advantage of a good read when offered for free. Heck, I do not even think anyone is actually interested enough in books. OJ’s Ghost written book "If I Did It, only sold 150,000 copies…I guess he was not scary enough!! Written by E.B. Wilkes.

I think all the

” No children Left Behind”

forgot to

play tag along with their

minds.

After all, that  U.S President

that I cannot Remember,

that declared – No Child Left Behind,

nver said

for them to Remember to bring

their minds.

Oh I spelled (never) wrong,

A simply word, I guess,

but my mind is not at it’s best.

I seem to have forgotten much!

Maybe I had other things to do,

when I did not do

what I was supposed to do;

Like feed my mind

with as much learning

as I could find.

Maybe I did not take the time to read

the News.

God knows, without proper knowledge,

that I’ve more than paid me dues!!

    This poem speaks volumes!
