Addiction or affliction
This was something I never predicted,
But I think that now, I might be addicted.
“Oh my goodness” I hear you say,
“What is this problem that controls his day?”
Well do not worry-it’s not that bad,
Although sometimes it drives me mad.
It’s just…
I’m always thinking of words that rhyme,
And it is taking up all of my time.
Maybe it’s a type of rhyming affliction,
Or is it the curse of poetry addiction?
Maybe I need sometime away,
Perhaps I’ll take a holiday…

You and me both! i feel addicted too. all i think about is rhyming or not rhyming... and how to write the next one....and im beginning to think my better ones are the very first i ever did. i must be getting 'stale" in the brain...i think i need time off, but then....i get the urge..
great write. i like it.

Hi Linda
Hi Linda
There was some jest in this, but also alot of truth as well, I spend alot of time thinking about the siliest things, like Zwinkys, and how to put them into the craziest of poems. I wonder if there is a name for this. By the way I think your recent ones have been very good, I have certainly enjoyed them.
Andrew
Thanks Andrew!!
LOL, just thinking of that Zwinky one, and me thinking it was a blow up doll...OMG...LOL!
i love your crazy poems so much. yeah, i wonder if there is a name for poems like that...we could make a name up for them....
thanks andrew...keep up the good work!
Linda

Don't tempt me...with the chocolate...i ate so much of it, i was practically in a coma the other night...LOL
I have the same problem
I have that problem too Andrew,I am talking in rhymes , going to bed in Rhymes and waking up in rhymes thing is I love poems that rhyme more than the ones that don`t cant get to grips with the ones that dont rhyme,
I think maybe it`s more of a challenge loved your poem Andrew I can relate to that,what you want is www.rhymezone.com/help/ this helps me when I am stuck save it in your favourites from Willow
the japanese wrote without rhyme...
guess that's why I like the tanka so much! Only have to worry about the rhythm and the number of syllables. Much easier if you're not very wordy, as I'm not!
another great poem, andrew. you're doing very well!
joyce
Thanks to you both
Thanks to you both, I will have to try and write one of these tanka poems Joyce.
Thanks for the website Willow I will have a look, may save a few headaches.
