Mrs. Keeping's non-Rhyming Poems

A good friend of mine, Diane Keeping, has been causing laughter for decades with her non-rhyming ryhming poems. Here is an example.

Hi boys and girls I'm Mr. Skip
During the summer I'm taking a car ride

I'll be traveling with my wife and my daughter
Looking for a place on a beach near the ocean

I love the beach and playing in the sun
Splashing in the waves it's just a lot of joy

Well vacation is over and it was really cool.
Summer's over and I have to go back to learning.

Write a poem with the words orange and silver next time.
Then you'll see how hard it is to rhyme.

Diane Keeping
