I’ll write a sonnet it’s not hard, is it
The hardest thing is how to begin it.
Once you start, it’s hard to stop.
One sonnet might be, in fact, a crop.
I used to write five poems a day.
I seemed to know just what to say
Yet too much talking can disturb.
The gentle angels are perturbed
In Suffolk is an ancient church
Above the altar small birds perch
The angels hang down from the roof
The faces grave convey the truth.
I tried to write but did it work?
Wisdom dwells where angels lurk
