A poem by Franklin P. Adams

Vain Words

________________________________________________
Title:     Vain Words
Author: Franklin P. Adams [More Titles by Adams]

Humble, surely, mine ambition;
It is merely to construct
Some occasion or condition
When I may say "usufruct."

Earnest am I and assiduous;
Yet I'm certain that I shan't amount
To a lot till I use "viduous,"
"Indiscerptible," and "tantamount."







[The end]
Franklin P. Adams's poem: Vain Words
