This poem is a monorhyme
About a mountain I should climb
Just to the east of Anaheim
Must climb it while I'm in my prime
Must get a permit just in time

The permit cost is just a dime
The cashier is a white-faced mime
To get his attention ring the chime

If you want can pantomime
Must wash your hands of any grime
Don't damage them by using lime
For melted skin turns into slime
Could bandage it with sprigs of thyme
Others might not yet be done but I'm
