I am not Sherlock, Father
and you can be proud
a moment you cut my slumber
because I'm out of the crowd

I am not Watson, Father
and I'll show
another way to the treasure
brilliance I still bestow

I am Arthur, Father
and I'll acquaint
a new word fighter
but still not a saint

The author's comments:
This is a poem for my father. I'm gonna tell him that although I'm not going to the college he wants, I still can be my best. Sherlock Holmes is a good character, Dr. Watson is a good character too. But they would never be exist without Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. That's what I want to tell him.
