14 lines of silliness in Cyhydedd Fer form (described below the poem).

I wondered how to write a rhyme
without it taking too much time.
Why should I care how long it takes?
'Cause I hate writing with no breaks.
So here I go, I'll try my best
to write straight through without a rest.
Well, look at this, it just might work
without me looking like a jerk.
The words are flowing like hot soup,
and that just shows how low I'll stoop.
I'll write a piece that makes no sense.
That might be faster, less intense.
And that's enough. My rhyme is done.
So bye for now, I've gotta run.




Cyhydedd Fer form:
> A series of rhymed couplets of 8-syllable lines
> Rhyme scheme:
         xxxxxxxa/xxxxxxxa
         xxxxxxxb/xxxxxxxb
         xxxxxxxc/xxxxxxxc
         etc.
