A BEE IN HIS BONNET: a sonnet

A BEE IN HIS BONNET: a sonnet


This is about a man who, like Newton,
Was busy picking many a pebble
Of knowledge at sea shore, weather-beaten.
In three different fields he did dabble.

He taught as a medical professor
For three decades and found it rather cool.
For law he had love not a bit lesser.
After retirement he joined the law school.

He joined the bar as a lawyer and then
He tried to hone his skills in writing verse.
He did make abundant use of his pen,
Writing poems that had a message terse.

Maybe he had a bee in his bonnet.
It was he himself who wrote this sonnet.
