Mike Hauser Poet Rhyme

This Rhyme

There is this rhyme
I've had for some time
Bouncing around in my head

And just when I 
Think it's ready for flight
It buries itself instead

Running this course
Of back and forth
Often thought but never seen

Like the words to a song
Forgot long ago
Only humming the melody 

I think over time
It's added words to it rhyme
Expanding what it has to say

But what good does it do
When it never let's loose
Enough to see the light of day

Only giving a taste
Of what it has to say
Never taking that final step

As my guess is this rhyme
Will stay for some time
Bouncing around in my head
