Meter…Meter

Contributed by Sherry_Gail_Heim on Sunday, 21st July 2002 @ 08:28:01 AM in AEST
Topic: HumorPoetry



Meter…Meter

Meter, meter, so hard to rhyme
I feel I’m wasting precious time
My poetry don’t seem to flow
If I meter…the rhyme won’t go

So hard to study poetry
To do it right for all to see
And make it flow smooth like a verse
I swear my writing’s getting worse

If I try to be the student
Writings are just not quite prudent
I think I’m gonna just do rhyme
Save meter for another time

My poetry has been quite fun
Not counting on each line and run
So my poems though not correct
Have been the thoughts that I collect

Whew, this was really hard to do
Counting meter while rhyming too
Instead of my usual rhyme
I wrote with meter this one time

To be honest, I am not sure what Meter is, other then in metric terms, but for poetry, well..... like Jenni said...... I belive what you feel is what you write. I am not a writer, more so my time of healing is in the writes, so for now, as it may be, I will write as it may only be temporary!!
Good write and thanks for the nice comments on my write as well.
