Rhyme
A bee’s firmly under my bonnet
I detest each Shakespearean sonnet
And any forced rhyme
To me is a crime
I’ve read them and I want to ‘vomet’
I truly don’t like triolet
The laziest form you can bet
Repeat one line thrice
Another line twice
They’re boring, and not an asset!
Some twaddle is written in rhyme
I’ve witnessed a poetic crime
I don’t get it one bit -
(Add a letter to hit)
Though the poet thinks its sublime
The limerick’s my chosen form
Strict syllable count, I’ll conform
Some themes are not pretty
I think they are witty
And humour for me is the norm
