Andrea Dietrich Poet Monorhyme

Monorhyme With Ewws

Entering a contest; don’t want to lose!
But here I sit, abandoned by my muse.
Since I don’t want to be singing the blues,
I keep on writing to see what ensues,
and hopefully I can at least amuse.
Sure wish my brain with imagery would ooze
and that “ewwes” was a decent rhyme to choose.
I sure do like the hues of chartreuse.
Clearly a forced rhyme, which still I WILL use!
Did you catch my internal rhyme with HUES?
Those off-topic lines I hope you’ll excuse
and that this ditty won’t cause you to snooze.
Could I take EWWS down other avenues?
Well, this is all I’ve got. Hope it gets some views!
Almost at 16 lines!! That is good news!
No AHHS for EWWS; I’ll go eat cashews.
