Humorous Writing Advice: What Do I Do When My Words Just Don't Rhyme?
Take them and break them, or toss them in time.
Hammer them into some place in a box?
Don't fret about any time, place or blocks.
Sift them about, until somewhere you see
A poem that composes itself some way,
Opens the world; states what you want to say.
It can disappear, without any trace.
Sometimes it comes back; sometimes it does not.
Oft' in between lines, the rhyme can get caught.
It cannot be placed; it's lost like a mitt.
What triggers the mind in total recall,
Can be the alphabet, one letter, all?
Just try another, like planting good seed.
A rhyme with the right word like a fresh brook,
Soon tumbles freely, oft' into a book.
Can be perfected with music, in time.
Singing your poetry just as you write,
Can be a burden or new found delight.
Juggling your words, can help improve your rhyme.
Loving your work and the art it displays,
Oft' is a fun way to spend all your days.
Helps to release any rhyme that might flow.
What do I do, if a work I can't fix?
Poets will always have a bag of tricks.
When poets are challenged to fresh release.
Rhyming is fun, but it also is work,
Something a poet should not try to shirk.
Something that poets will oft' seek to share.
Playing with rhyme as the work of one's life,
Can relieve tension and break up the strife.
The easiest way for new rhyme to see.
Just writing poetry when one's inspired
Works so much better than when one is tired.
One leads the other, with rhyme in command.
So spend your time poet, rhyming away;
Enjoy the work, till the end of your day.
Writing new poetry, penning new rhyme.
Deep in the soul of the poet is found,
Rhyme with new words that will ever resound.
Something so fresh and so pure that it speaks,
As into new rhythm and rhyme it soon peeks.
If it's predestined, there's nothing to fear.
Soon it will flow and it never will end.
As fast as you pen it, there's more to be penned.
