My Poetry Obsession
Poetry has become an obsession
An accidental rhyme makes me wonder
How many syllables would that be?
It's something I'm forced to ponder
Pat, Pat, Pat!! What? What are you doing?
Why are you standing in water?
Oh I was, well you said a letter?
You got a letter from your daughter
Oh, yeah ok from my daughter
Hey, water rhymes with daughter, right?
How many syllables is that
Pat, come to bed and turn off the light?
Yeah, I guess rest would do me some good
With sleep I'll be ok in no time flat
OK, the lights off and I'm going to sleep
Wait, How many syllables is that?
