Joseph May Poet Rhyme

A Sprinkle of Muse

Before I begin I must sprinkle some muse
 The main ingredient for the words I'll choose
       I'll add in some metaphors with a sprig of thyme
          Then I'll add in two cups of rhyme

 I'll then drop  a pepper into the pot
 And slices of sadness to make you tear up
           I'll even add assonance, perhaps just a cup
 There will be passion as the poem gets hot

  A bit of personification with tomatoes I'll then stew
 I'll add a teaspoon of alliteration too
 This dish will be spicy just by default
 I'll sprinkle my similes with a pinch of salt
 

 With limericks, a dash of humor is thrown
 Hope it will tickle your funny bone
   With syllable count not a vowel to waste
                  My poem is cooked please take a taste!
