For an immature poet like me the rhyme Becomes the greatest crime I want to write a poem on a piece of soap Or the greatness of the Italian Pope I talk about the faithfulness of a pet dog Or the great utility of a school bag I can write a poem on a match stick Since I feel, for poetry there is no yardstick Mr George J Jerry thinks My poetry is rather Awkward I can no longer go any forward He feels my poetry is meant for un-schooled I don’t think I am even a bit fooled He opines my poems are mere mush And I am making unnecessary fuss In fact I am very much cooled Because I think I am correctly ruled

THE RHYME, MY GREATEST CRIME
For an immature poet like me the rhyme Becomes the greatest crime I want to write a poem on a piece of soap Or the greatness of the Italian Pope I talk about the faithfulness of a pet dog Or the great utility of a school bag I can write a poem on a match stick Since I feel, for poetry there is no yardstick Mr George J Jerry thinks My poetry is rather Awkward I can no longer go any forward He feels my poetry is meant for un-schooled I don’t think I am even a bit fooled He opines my poems are mere mush And I am making unnecessary fuss In fact I am very much cooled Because I think I am correctly ruled
