A Penny For Your Thoughts

Stepping stones
& Ginger Ale
Barbie dolls 
with eyes to stare.
Lightning dances,
to different strokes.
More to Love
Much too close.
Speak your mind
& mind your manners.
Do what your told,
find the right answer.
Put it away for now,
just rest your crown.
Another high-hope,
is another let-down.
Money well spent is on
what was never bought
& i believe its called,
a penny for your thoughts.

GOOD JOB! I think this is Free Verse and not a Rhyme. Only two words rhyme & you can get away with two rhyming words in free verse. abcdefghijklmnopqRsR is your rhyme pattern? No this is Free Verse.
