hey peoples you could be a poet too

Anyone can write a haiku;

That means me, him, her, them, & you;

seventeen-syllable jive,

that's ordered five-seven-five,

on any old subject will do.

Limericks are also quite fun,

and about anything under the sun;

they've a rhyme scheme in play,

simply A-A-B-B-A;

and this, for example, is one.

You might find it fun to play poet,

and never hitherto know it,

if you don't try to compose,

something other than prose,

and then dare to someone else show it.

For sharing poetry 'feels' works quite fine,

if you space twice after each line;

if you know HTML,

that too would be swell,

but who on earth has the time?
