Rhyming

I love the rhythm of the rhyme It's cadence forms a melody An indelible expression Filled with magic imagery Poetically a skill I love the rhythm of the rhyme Longing to be heard, juxtaposed The feelings, to the written word Spinning words, gathering up speed, It's ups and downs elicit joy I love the rhythm of the rhyme A conductor's musical deed An orchestrated symphony Words peal a beat on timpani An aria that comes alive I love the rhythm of the rhyme December 31, 2016

Hi Donna, Thank you, glad you enjoyed the "whimsy" I was trying to invoke!

Oh, this is so artfully done! There is something to repetitiveness that I find extremely appealing. I love pantoums, villanelles and terzanelles too for that very same reason.
