“My Poems” as read by Warren Adler

I want to write ten thousand poems before I say goodbye

I don’t know why

Maybe in my soul I am a poet

And don’t know it

Or maybe I just like to spin a rhyme

Perhaps I’ll find out in time

It’s not for fortune or for fame

More like a game

Where to win is finding words

That fit

Like spotting flying birds

Yes, that may be it.
