Words that fit together in a rhyme are
the second hands on a clock that tells
perfect time.
A skip, a hop, a full stride gallop
one can see the effort as the
thing develops.
Once in rhyme it is hard to leave
because so much of it is something
up a sleeve.
Paul Simon was called Rhymin' Simon
the words just flowed, honey rolling
sparking diamonds.
Some use a dictionary of a kind
to find words they may not know
or yet to define.
Like the couple who complete puzzles
the missing piece may be a lost die
some call a trussell.
One must leave the land of rhyme
or risk becoming enchanted in
Don Quixote time.
