In reality, you asked for examples---all of your end rhymes are easy rhymes. Not saying that to discourage you...just to get you thinking about how you can improve in future poems. =)Hi Bena: you mean easy rhyme is couplets? It's interesting that you say that? I definitely connected music in my thinking when I started this challenging art. I can understand though that being too sing songy can detract from the seriousness in many cases. And it's not discouraging. I appreciate all input from experienced poets and thank you
very much. I will certainly keep this in mind when writing newer poems. Thanks again, Loretta
