Rhyme Poems

I'm going out to clean the pasture spring

ill only stop to rake the leaves away

and wait to watch the water clear, I may

I shan't be gone long

• To dream of vast horizons of soul

through dreams made whole,

unfettered free.

• Here I was walking all alone a

• and a butterfly came flying on my throne a

and it said I knew you once before b

as I look into your core I can see c

the things that you will be c

I am only to you a memory. c

As I fly away and you continue your day d

you will be the greatest thing the world will need today d

I am the monarch butterfly

Rhyme & Scheme Poems

My cat goes through the air a

from over here to over there a

he lands and runs back and then b

goes flying through the air again b

Grew lean while he assailed by the seasons b

he wept that he was never born a

as he had reasons b

i miss you in the morning a

i miss you late at night b

just to think about you c

its my joy and delight b
