In Praise of Rhyming Words

A golden pen of silken quotes that rhyme . A quill in ink on dusty vellum sheets That stand the true and tested span of time Like the wondrous words of Wordsworth, Gray or Keats . Some convoluted sentences of prose Sit high on alters snaring the absurd. Venerated in their awe that never knows The tranquil beauty of the rhyming word . Time's not just a healer who'll endure The pious presentations of new writes Like modern texts, illiterate and obscure Being quenched by rhyme's illuminating lights . This is for all of you , who like see their poetry structured and rhyme , like the " Old Guys" , and is NOT meant as a "downer" on all other creative presentations .
