Metered poetry can be fun to write,
When theres nothing else to do at night.
Just like that raven who says nevermore,
It can leave you dreaming of a distant shore!
Metered poetry doesnt have to rhyme,
If you are careful and just take your time!
Just think of what you want to say,
Then let pen and paper simply flow away.
Metered poetry is like a taxi cab,
The numbers clicking makes a driver glad.
If you boil it down to a place and time,
I think now and here, I prefer some rhyme.
Metered poetry and Dr. Seuss,
Who in the world let that crazy man loose?
But imagine a world had he never been,
We would have needed to go and invent him!
Metered poetry is what I choose to write,
Before I fall off to sleep each night.
Sometimes it is a hard thing to do,
As the sandman hits me with a gooey goo!
When the stuff hardens and my eyes seal shut,
Youll hear my snoring when Ive had enough!
Every other stanza started by saying metered.
This one ends by admitting Im petered! Night!
