this is just a bit of silliness really. I wrote about writing in iambic pentameter.
Wrinting in iambic pentameter
Is not as easy as it looks because
You think that a word has two syllables
But it only has one- like the word squire.
Then you are stuck having to change the line
Which leads to frustration because you can't
Think of new ways to re-phrase the sentence.
It takes a great amount of your time
If you go and try to make wach line rhyme.
But I find that it can be hard at times.
I found it is best if you finish the
Poem with an even number of lines
Otherwise the poem just ends oddly.
Where to go from here? I am at a loss.
What more can I say about this subject?
Dang it all I need is one more line-- shoot!
