About an admirable writer who set a high standard in the game and world of literature

To the Standard of the Game

By Rachel Ysabel

Waves of  fascination, I shall confess before words cluster

I am speechless with admiration and it deepens like no other

Late works of yours are salient ‘till the last day.

Liaison would not be the same without the words you made in a genius way

Incredible and relatable themes, oh!

All of which we know, you tackled it all like a pro

Men, women and everyone in between; they all know your name.

Savant, you are the standard of this game

Hight the world’s greatest dramatist

All will agree, you're a timeless artist

Knowledgeable Lord, thine poems, comedies, and tragedies gave

Eternal wisdom and quill and ink even after the grave.

Shall I say your name? Or let thy readers shoot their guess?

Perchance, a hint is there for you are an epitome of eloquence

Each masterpiece you made gave ecstasy to our brains

Anon, confusion will vanish for thou canst be compared to no one

Reasons to choose you is an ending list; a sentiment I do not share alone

E’en after a millennium, thine brilliance will be remembered though future is unknown.
