One day a lad had a notion,
That he could do card magic sans much commotion; He became overwhelmed by the work, Feeling like a helpless jerk, Kind of like parachuting into the middle of the ocean. But the lad still plods on. Thanks for listening.
So many sleights...so little time.

I like your poem. I bet you could use this as the patter for a trick. Kudos to you for the creativity.

And a bit more cynical:
An eager young lad wanted to do a trick But thinking about hard work made him sick He thought what's the big deal Went on to YouTube to steal And now magic has acquired another prick. Ciao for now Erik

'Do you like cards tricks?' he said
To the beautiful lady in red He showed her twenty And thought that was plenty Cos after three she had gone off to bed! |

He performed magic in all kinds of places
He loved the smiles on all the kids faces He said 'Do you like rope?' They all shouted'Nope' So he showed them the Twisting The Aces! |

He performed hundreds of shows on the street
It played havoc and hell on his feet But he played to the crowd And each one he wowed Cos his tricks he performed really neat |

An old guy feeling quite vain
Wanted badly to entertain He read Strong Magic by Darwin Ortiz Which taught him how to really please But the classic pass still drives him insane.

A proud father said with force:
Will, son, come pleate, magic course! But Card College and Royal Road, Tamariz, Bobo and other code were his son's new hobby horse. |

A boy wanted to fool Penn and Teller,
