Analogies

"Analogies"
Rachel Heffington
Like a truffle without chocolate
Like an apple without peel,
Like a mouth without a smile
Like a letter without seal,
Like a ring without a diamond
Like a watch without the time,
Like a fountain without water
Is a poem without rhyme. 
 

               (And no, I don't *entirely* agree with my own words up there, as I've read
some un-rhyming poetry I have really enjoyed. Rhyming verse is my favorite, though. :)
