Be

It’s Mike’s birthday.
The day he began to be.
Mike and I love helping verbs.
The Big 23 begin with the two most important:
Be
And
Am.
We both love the Beatles, as well,
Who sing to us, so wisely,
Let It Be.
Was and were should be used cautiously,
Shall and should, respectfully.
Am is now,
And I have found it a better place
To Be.
