My Rhymes

¦¦¦¦ in the ebb and flow
¦¦¦ my dreams ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦
¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ in mind,
Humbly ¦¦¦¦¦¦ you will find
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ a gleam that's true
To ¦¦¦ dreams ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ in you.

¦¦¦¦¦¦ my lines ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ with rhyme
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦ deem them worth ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
¦¦¦¦ I think ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ your kindly thought,
¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ words ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ fit your taste.

Please ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
Riffle ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦
¦¦¦ in ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ just a glance,
Give ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ a chance . . .
¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ readers who
Tune to them,--may ¦¦¦ be you!
