An Apology

I apologize for what you will see here
I sometimes find myself fighting with meter
And from time to time,
The lines, they don’t rhyme,
But cut me some slack, it’s not like I’m charging you to read this, okay?

Apologies, I’ve come back to grips,
And I looked up some limerick tips.
I’ve picked up some wisdom
On structure and rhythm
But sticking to the rules has never been a really strong suit of mine.
