Rhyme and Reason
A funny satire from an ignorant poet8 total reviews
Comment from dragonpoet
This is a witty way to say that meter, though important to some, is not that important to you. I don't think anyone knows all about the meter.
Keep writing and say healthy
Congrats of placing second in the contest.

Comment from Tom Horonzy
I think I agree wholeheartedly
What it is I read and see
with a little bit of trouble
since as mentioned earlier
I am one of those over SEVENTY.
Be well and good luck
in your pursuit of good writing.
Iambic ... why?
Trochaic ... I thought was of the throat
until I looked it up.
No wonder I like free verse.:-)

And today I turned seventy-five. My hourglass is balanced better with 3/4 of the sand on the bottom onion.
Comment from country ranch writer
Sounds like the man thinks he knows all he needs to know until he finally realizes he's wrong. He was the type who would die and go to hell than admit it to others.

Ha ha ha, metre helps our poems flow and without it there is no tune and even free writes benefit from good metre. Here you make fun of it and I enjoyed the joke Mario, love Dolly x

I sent you a reply, it didn't go through probably...I was saying thank you for having enjoyed the post. The intention of course was to convince the contest board of the metre class of my extreme ignorance of the metre. So, now that they know this fact, they will surely take pity on me and throw me into the class...for free...!!! LOL
Thanks again

This Contest Entry was well written rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.

Complete Synopsis:
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures Aligned Perfectly.
Good luck with this one.

Comment from Maria Millsaps
Clever of you to write a poem that others can relate to. Many of us don't know how to count meters, but let me count the ways: monometer, dimeter, trimeter, tetrameter, pentameter, hexameter, heptameter. Have a blessed day.

Comment from pome lover
very clever. Personally, I have found that people read poetry with their own meter, regardless the intent of the author. It never ceases to amaze me.
You should frame this and hang it over your desk.
