Mike Hauser Poet Rhyme

The Treasure of Rhyme

With years of mind numbing digging
Persistence pays off with time
I would almost call it a living
This life long search for the treasure of rhyme

Harder to track than the abominable snowman
Slippery than that monster in Loch Ness
More cunning than Jack the Ripper trailing a stripper
Is the hidden rhymes elusiveness

I've been from one end of the lobe to the other
In the deep dark recesses of the mind
Hoping to finally discover
Where it has hidden the pockets of rhyme

When I discover it I'll come back victorious
I will then share with poetry my find
The words that I use will be various
As I open to all the treasure of rhyme
