My words are quite simple, they’re clear and yet plain.
To me it’s the rhythm that drives each refrain.
I try not to clutter the thoughts that I share
With words picked at random to try to add flair.
If the words flow together and sound like a song,
If they’re pleasantly soothing and not like a gong,
They’ll more likely be heard and then linger a while.
Some songs bring a tear, some a sigh or a smile.
I love to stitch thoughts around one central theme,
Perhaps, just for taste, spoon a bit of whipped cream.
“What’s the theme of this ramble?” I’m sure you will ask.
It’s a rhyme about rhyming and rhythm – the task.
I try to mix rhythm with simple and plain,
Unscramble the thoughts intertwined in my brain.
