Poetry Corner


Poetry corner

A poetry corner has only two sides
So every word subtly, into it glides
Without a simple reason or rhyme
Another side would make it fine
But it would still only be triasidic

A better thing  by far is a poetry square
And then you really know not where
‘Cos the words can go on all four sides
Spelling mistakes you there can hides
Now it’s grown to a pyramid – in three D

A pentagon’s my idea of heaven
Except when hit on nine eleven
A wonderful shape, symetrical too
Good for elephants in the zoo
Six too many, just have seven

We’re getting on now to a hexagon
Just like a hat of a Mexican
Dozing off in the midday sun
Could be many or only one,
-more will make a septagon

I’m sick of shapes
Please no more
Poetry’s fine
On its own
Polly’s gone.
