Ottava Rima

So many forms of poetry to try!
Their meter is distinct, as is their rhyme.
Here’s yet another one that caught my eye;
I must remember it from time to time.
I like it, but I am not quite sure why;
seems sonnet-like but perhaps less sublime.
This schema has a funny-sounding name:
Ottava rima, not sure who’s to blame…
