Emile Pinet Poet Rhyme

Tentative and Unrefined

My poems have me musing with my muse:
inking new phrases, so I don't reuse.
And to make obscure words sound sensible:
a thesaurus is indispensable.

Each and every line conceived in my mind
gets roughed in, tentative, and unrefined.
And to broaden my vocabulary,
I consult a rhyming dictionary.

And as verses form through perseverance,
a brand-new poem makes its appearance.
