poetry is not a crime

You surely can rhyme
Heard this all the time
Poetry is not a crime
It could be sublime

It makes not a dime
Can be done in quick time
Words that somehow rhyme
Pop out from the grime

Slither through the slime
Some of them sublime
One found in Anaheim
Words that love to rhyme

Lemon cake with lime
Atoms with an enzyme
Want to add to this rhyme
Poetry is not a crime
