Monorhyme Poem
Harry’s Challenges
Ah, the poems that we write
When challenged by Harry, our knight
He brings out our words, ever so bright
And we’d go on without ne’er a respite
Throughout the day and into the long night!
Writing a poem’s not like flying a kite,
Our rhythm and rhyme we must get just right,
Ah, I can spend hours as I write and rewrite,
Not getting frustrated, not getting uptight,
As my Muse writes a poem with just the right bite!
Challenges give us something we can recite,
Making us think of faeries or maybe a sprite.
I’m ever so Happy when up comes Harry’s invite!
They stimulate my grey cells, as we poets unite,
To write in new forms we’ve learnt overnight!
Written for the Monorhyme Poem Challenge at the Poet’s Corner!
Rhyming poems always through me because I run out of words. This is very impressive.

sometimes they throw me too…especially if I chose the “wrong” last word..this one was easy 😉

I do that all the time. Ends up testing my vocabulary when the toddler is around because I can’t curse.

🙂 well using a thesaurus helps and an on line dictionary of rhyming words…like wikirhymer….even so it can be trying when there are those words that just don’t have a rhyme and sometimes not even a near rhyme.

I use the on-line dictionary, but I still get tripped up if it’s a long running rhyme. I overestimate the rhyme families at times.

Ah…know the song. Usually can get around it though it can be a slog at times.
