A bit of an ode to rhyming verses would Shakespeare have loved free verse, when living now and not before would Hamlet sound the same in free, in stead of rhyme, which we adore could Poe have written the Raven in the same fantastic, peculiar flow if words had not been rhyming well, in verses written so long ago creative poets showed their skill, in a perfect rhyming scheme describing feelings, like Escher did, in his famous 'Scream' and wasn't all the philosophy, written by René Descarte about mind-body dualism, thought up very smart when you are laying down in meadows green focusing eyes at nature's colourful scene white clouds drifting along the sky wondering, why birds can fly you know that you really can not deny but if you did, it would be (I think) the greatest lie that Shakespeare's rhymes and Poe's as well, right from the start are hitting - inspirational diamants as they are - almost everybody's heart ***** Written for a contest in another poetry site. We were given a lot of rhyming words which we should use as end rhymes. We were not allowed to use more than 16. And I don't even like tea... Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |
