Blame It On the Spill

Oh mommy, mommy! I have fallen and my head feels ill. O darling baby, blame it on the spill. Oh mommy, mommy! I dropped my milk, now I can't feel chilled. O darling baby, blame it on the spill. Oh mommy, mommy! The bottle top popped and spewed my pills. O darling baby, blame it on the spill. Oh mommy, mommy! The beach is black and the fish have no will! O darling baby, blame it on the spill...

I don't understand the "form" Very good I liked your poem. I only started writing poems since my wife died in 2009 I can relate to rhyming poems better than others. As you can tell from my poems. A lot of poems I don’t understand and I would hate to give a wrong comment. I want my poems to honor my wife long after I’m gone. Thank you
