Etcetera

a poem by Christuraj Alex

We like to see our names highlighted, don’t we?
It might be of trivial importance, whatsoever it be;
I would like to bring before you a beautiful story,
Two poets wanted to find their greatest glory;
They searched their names in every paper they found,
And felt sorry when their names they could not find;
It’s then one comes to the other and says the good news,
Of finding they’re in certain well-known Newspapers;
He searches and not finding his name sighs a great Ah!
It’s then his friend reveals that his name is in etcetera!
