Poems do not have to rhyme,
If you don't, it's not a crime.
Thinking of rhymes just takes time,
Like scrubbing dirt and severe grime.
Easier to say that 'I'm,
Done with it, I'm done with rhymes'.
So why do I use it now?
There....I've stopped, I do vow.
Ahh, can't stop this, get me out,
Of this site, I try and shout!
But it's too late the rhyming bug,
Is a truly brutal thug.
It hangs on tight and won't let go,
I just wanted you to know.
Poems to do not have to rhyme,
But when they do they are sublime.
Dedicated to my son who always tells me what rhymes with cat, mat and sat!
