Some say, "do not rhyme" Some point out its beauty, Which is right my dear? Can you tell me certainly? Rhyme comes with real ease Without any extra efforts But, many think I struggle To rhyme all my fine poems Many criticize with venom As they could not tolerate They make a cruel attack Despising rhyming attitude Rhyme gives charm and beauty To a poem by finely adorning it But, some call it very artificial Saying it mars its very meaning Now to rhyme or not to rhyme Gives my mind great dilemma Poem with no rhyme is possible Let such a trend be capitalized. mvvenkataraman www.mvvenkataraman.com RHYME mvvenkataraman IN GOOGLE OR RHYME |

No. No crime. Who cares. I rhyme.I don't rhyme. There is much to be said concerning whatever form of poetry you write. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Some of the most beautiful poetry in the world is rhyming poetry..many are still written in that form. I personally have trouble with the form, perhaps it is the struggle to not have my rhymes seen as forced...attest the pop culture thought that rap lyrics are poetry? But there are exceptions, even in that genre, Tupac being one. Hurray for you for writing this poem, and although the poetry elite will frown, please continue to stand up for the form. |

I am very, very late, Poet in welcoming you to Passions! Please, let me belatedly welcome you...and to all the rhyming you might do! Sunshine "The business of the poet...is to show the sorriness underlying the grandest things and the grandeur underlying the sorriest things." Thomas Hardy |
