Rhymes! - hellsing293 - 05-30-2008 For English class, I was asked to write a poem that was a minimum of 25 lines. The poem had to include at least 20 internal rhymes as well. Real Poets Don’t Rhyme!
[FONT="]“Is it a crime not to rhyme?!” I chime,[/FONT]
[FONT="]“The poem I design should be mine”[/FONT]
[FONT="]Rhymes are bound to be found,[/FONT]
[FONT="]But why make them partake?[/FONT]
[FONT="]I say, do not make my poetic ideas decay,[/FONT]
[FONT="]Because they don’t rhyme!
[/FONT] [FONT="]I scream to let off steam,[/FONT]
[FONT="]“Why me” I decree.[/FONT]
[FONT="]I felt an unfair hand I was dealt.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Now I must fight to merely write,[/FONT]
[FONT="]And find a word that rhymes with absurd.[/FONT]
[FONT="]It’s way too hard to rhyme![/FONT]
[FONT="]
That’s it, I quit,[/FONT] [FONT="]Thoughts will no longer be distraught.[/FONT]
[FONT="]My mind is free to make a spree,[/FONT]
[FONT="]And dispose of poems that I wish to compose.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Without a doubt, many ideas I can write about,[/FONT]
[FONT="]I pray new ideas not sway astray.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Poets don’t need rhymes!
[/FONT] [FONT="]Wait, it may not be too late,[/FONT]
[FONT="]Can I save my poem from an early grave?[/FONT]
[FONT="]Oh no! Say it isn’t so,[/FONT]
[FONT="]How could I predict that I would be tricked?[/FONT]
[FONT="]This entire time, my poem has been one big rhyme.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Rhymes…you can’t get away![/FONT]
