I have never been one for rules, though I do rhyme a lot sometimes I just can't help it. But also take chances now and then and just write whatever comes to mind. I wrote on a site once that was all about poetic rules and damn if you broke 1 (or 10 in my case), they really let you have it. I'm not on that site anymore. :) This was fun Christy in a poetic sarcastic way.
