Tripple Rhyme
The idea is to write 6 to 8 lines in which the first, middle and last words in the first line rhyme with those in the lines following. The mid-rhyme should be as central as possible, it need not be exact.
I know we've wept a sea of selfish, childish, tears,
try your best to see beyond those faded fears.
Why hurt you, or me, after so many happy years?
Cry not, think of how we would dance and drink a few beers,
spry as young lovers could be, sharing our hurts and cheers.
Shy, my hand on your knee, we'd oft talk till dawn’s light appears.
My heart is now free to whisper love words in your ears
nigh onto the wee hours, while a scorned moon... leers.
(Triple Rhyme)
