Ode to a Rhyme
I wonder how hard it would be
For each line to end beautifully
With words that rhyme most verily
With the long sound of the vowel ‘e’
It would be a rare sight to see
Words woven by fine stitchery
In a singular rhyming spree
Causing verbal monotony
So, set out did I with great glee
To explore possibility
As real learning is never free
Though the work is a drudgery
Like layers of a BLT
I stack the rhymed lines so neatly
No emotion given sweetly
Just a sound heard repeatedly
I think that we can all agree
Experiment gone horribly
But now with a grand mastery
I can give a final decree
Say unapologetically
And rather categorically
Yes, even academically
It’s hard like trigonometry

That took some amazing talent! And, in the end, it made me giggle as well!
I had writer’s block and it started out as a goof. Then I got stuck in the rhyme and struggled to find a way out. Not my best work, but it was entertaining to find my answer to the pretense of the first line. Glad you got a chuckle from it!
sounds like a Dr. Seuss book, and that is the highest praise I can offer! Probably not many poems have both “BLT” and trigonometry in it… 🙂
Thanks for finding the silver lining Jim! A rare skill it is to combine lunch with math!
Bravo!!! Very well done 👏 👏 👏
Thank you Jupiter!
