Nurse Rhyme

I cannot rhyme

It is a crime

I try and try

And sigh and sigh

One day ill learn

And life will turn

Into infinate bliss

 

I love that word

Its like a bird

Flying through clouds

Singing loud.

Oh life rejoice

And then I stop

 

Turn away

Go play

By your self

Or with an elf

But i worn you

They are not nice

So play with mice

Instead.

 

Some people have

Natural talent

But I do not,

Oh well...

Reviews

[Jeffrey Gershom]

Your poem has the innocence of a nursery rhyme. The short lines makes for a fast pace... playful, like a child. Like one of your other reviewers said, the use of rhyme about non-rhyme is inventive, I like that.
I wish I could find that infinite bliss you speak of, but I guess it's the journey there that makes us care to write about it and to be aware that childhood fantasies can help us grow, if we dare.

ironic is right...and it makes this poem all the better. it really captures the reader's attention from start to end...nice job here

[Richard Longbow]

I like the use of irony in the poem. Making a rhyming poem about not being able to rhyme is cool. Nice job!
