I received some pointed words
On what I write and say
They chided me for simplicity
And how I spend my day
They made me think with intensity
And had me furrow my brows
To think so deep with seriousness
I’d sooner be in a pasture of cows
I write just for the pleasure
Though others can’t fathom why
They say I’m wasting my talents
My standards need to be raised so high
When I let my fingers ramble
They know not where to go
They simply follow my train of thought
The result to which even I don’t know
So this I say to all who care
And those who criticize my words
My creations are really just for me
Your comments are for the birds
