Found Poem

You can make poems from tiny little everyday rhymes. I just thought of the rhyme "To set ashore on Singapore" and look what I have done with it.


I took a voyage on the sea
to set ashore on Singapore
to refine overlooked lore.
To travel to Siam to meet the Siamese,
trade them food and beeswax
and all kinds of trees.
And to visit Iceland and Finland
and the seven seas.

See? You can make poems out of everyday rhymes and things. Go ahead and try it!
