Combo Commotion

This is dedicated to all those who enjoy putting together different forms of poetry, as this is an attempt at both Acrostic and Monorhyme. I guess I'm getting up in age L etting myself think that I'm a sage I n wanting to write poetry by the page K indred words with meter and gauge E ach poem a new form on my stage. T oday I should do better to be in a rage O r better still, be out earning a wage. W hilst here I sit in pajamas beige R inging in my ears does constantly engage I n keeping with the simple message T o write words with meter, rhyme, then gauge E ach to their relationship upon the page. P oor me, to be at such a stage O f wrangling with those words I allege E ach time only to hope to assuage T hat ego that says I am some gifted sage Y et know, I am only showing my age.

hahaha, the last line is great fun, Daniel. Yes, in the end, we fancy ourselves such wizards of art, but we are just practicing a hobby which will not do much else (not for fame and fortune anyway) but lend enjoyment to our friends who can appreciate what we do! I enjoy playing with forms too, very much. Luv, Andrea
