Poem 6

 

                        Worth Little More

 

                  Worth little more

                  Shall I speak to this rhyme,

                  The deep quest that left behind

                  Will more widely surrender to it,

                  The mercy shall pursue

                  Or might not, that doesn’t feet

                  My desires off to the way

 

                  Worth little more

                  Shall I agree to this rhyme,

                  But no surrender anymore;

                  May I speak not the truth

                  Yet despair, that mighty took.

 

                  Worth little more

                  Did I speak, shall I make;

                  No heresy to me then

                  It speaks no little worth,

                  But a little more, then

                  It would be completely

                  A worth little more.
