Naughty Poems – Long and Short

A poem

Rhythm and Rhyme.

The root of a poem is its rhyme,
As sweet as a silver bell’s chime!

Now it looks like a very bad time,
Since poems are not worth a dime!

Is it because of a different clime?
But poem without rhyme is a crime!

It burns our inside like caustic lime;
It feels as ugly as the sticking grime!

Words with neither rhythm nor rhyme,
May pass for poems, but are mime!

It may take us a very longtime,
To read good poetry in our lifetime!
