Born in nineteen eighty-eight,
Only son of dad and mate.
Went to school at half-past six,
Read and studied just for kicks.
Graduated, eighteen plus,
Joined the Force as all boys must.
What’s in the years past ten-and-nine?
I guess your guess’s as good as mine!
I am loving your rhyming. It’s a lost art. Have you read Banjo Patterson and Henry Lawson? They use to write a lot of their social comment back and forwards to each other in rhyme.
Thanks! Rhymes are under-rated
No I hadn’t heard of them… their poems look interesting! I take it you’re Australian?
ah, your church mate, Joshua introduced me to your blog. He told me you write poems too, so I wanted to take a look! (: and yes, rhymes are totally under-rated and seems to be of elementary level to many writers. I’m glad you use them! (:
oh. hi. i don’t know you right? i see joshua’s been doing some unwarranted advertising for me… haha… um, hope you like the rhymes… unfortunately, i don’t think there’s much material here tho, and the blog is badly in need of updating… but thanks for dropping by and leaving a note
