The Realm Of Rhyme And Rhythm Poem by s.zaynab kamoonpury
The Realm Of Rhyme And Rhythm
Ooh I'm in love with poems that rhyme
Poems enrapture by their tuneful chime.
Ah hickory dickory dock
It's fun to see poems roll n rock.
Poems with a merry, cheery catchy tune
whisk me into that classic poetic boon
Poems embroidered with melody
send me forth into rhapsody
Just try your voicebox at a sing-a-long
and watch a poem go ping pong, ding dong.
It's poems with a funky beat
that are to me such a poetic treat
They are the ones that have
swept me off my feet.
Bouncy rhythms in rhyming verse
could be enjoyed even if they be a rant or terse.
I enjoy poems which bear those vivid rich tones
they'd even make ringtones for my cell-phones.
Poetic stanzas that have excellent symmetry
are my weakness in the realm of poetry.
Admirable is a well-structured rhyme scheme
provided you don't upset or stray from your theme.
Even silly nonsense rhymes give me a reader's thrill and fun
but meaninful rhyming ones
are ofcourse a bonus
as they make a two-in -one.
Ah poems with an astute rhythmic flow
are the ones for which you can take a bow
For no Dinars, dirhams or dime
do I sell my rhythm and buy your rhyme.
If you rhyme and write in meter
you can be sure I'll be your reader.
HAPPY RHYMING, CHIMING.
Bravo! This is wonderful. I agree with you. It's like dancing - you feel the rhythm and you can't stop. Although I have read beautiful non-rhyming poems, too. Sometimes I wish I could write like that but I can't. But we appreciate it all, don't we? Words written from the heart touch us like nothing else can.
Reading this poem made me feel good it was uplifting well done great rhyme and rhythm
Yes indeed, rhymes cast a magic spell, if they fit in so well, if not, I guess it is better to be rhyme-less.
simply amazing - it keep on rhyming - it keep on entertaining....
Love the exuberance and imagination in this tribute. I'm glad you celebrate rhyme and rhythm, Zaynub. If some say rhyming poetry is old hat - i say it's new hat! It's deep in the human soul to rhyme and sing like a bird! For a while I tried to fight the rhyme in my poems as blank verse seemed to be 'modern' but now I'm proud to rhyme.
Rhyming, however, is rife with pitfalls. Some of your stanzas are terrific, others clumsy. I say it is better to write in blank verse and take away all the tripwires!
