Mr. Poet died yesterday as a result of a flood
He had been suffering from writer’s block for several years
It appears in the middle of the night the block gave way
As he was immersed in a torrent of words
Unable to deal with the deluge Mr. Poet was overcome
Dying doing the thing he loved
He is survived by the many love poems to his wife
The humorous poems about his children
And the many sonnets about his sisters
