Miracle

I work for things deemed sensible
and avoid the junk dispensable
while seeking what's appreciable
to learn just what's achievable

while backwards reprehensible
where everything's disposable
and all that's left that's savable
is garbage that's recyclable

So say a prayer that's plausible
and hold mankind accountable
to keep your faith believable
that there's a God perceivable

Lovely word play, Trevor and difficult form to sustain, but I am pleased you did it so well. Check out the definition for monorhyme.

Isn't that strange. The style I chose to do is named. Thanks for mentioning the Monorhyme Mark. I'm always surprised that all the forms of poetry exist and are not subcategorized. Still; it's nice to know expression is limitless. Thanks for your comment Mark. Always a pleasure to hear from you.

Thanks Mel. It's really not one of my better poems; but it's an attempt to try this style of rhyming every line. Usually I avoid too much rhyme. I enjoyed your quatrain and couplet poems. I see you're always trying new styles. I'll have to try some different styles too. Hope to read more of your poetry to come Mel. Nice to see a gifted poet flourish as you are doing. Thanks. -Trevor
