'' I'm Finished Before I've Begun '' Poem by Bri Mar

As I tried to put a verse together,
I couldn't find what rhymes with Heather,
Perhaps I'll write about the weather,
Much easier said than done.

I know what I'll try a rhyme,
This really is a hilly climb,
It happens to me all the time,
The words refuse to run.

Haikus though they're small and neat,
With what's contained I can't compete,
Vast knowledge which you can't delete,
They sound like so much fun.

Free verse I've tried but always fail,
To rhyme or not goes off the scale,
What next I know you'll hear me wail,
My effort has been undone.

Narratives are long they are epic stories,
The wonder of poetry in all its glories,
Not one of my favoured categories,
It's like being on a marathon run.

A limerick I thought was really easy,
But now it's made me feel quite queasy,
With this writing lark I'm so in the dark,
I find the whole thing quite cheesy.

So many types from which to choose,
I never know which one to peruse,
Perhaps that's why I always lose,
