Mine Doesn't

as i once told you
it is easy to rhyme like

roses are red
violets are blue
flush the toilet
when you are through

or try
this one

eine meine meine moo
catch the monkey by the
tor

but i do not like
rhyming
it is simply
not enduring

it is a matter of
style
and anyone can
be a poet
if he simply
devotes time
to the bursting of emotions

like sun, like
the first day
when rays spread like
hands on the
breasts of the
mountains

most poems rhyme
mine doesn't.
