Monorhyme
Monorhyme is a poem in which all the lines have the same end rhyme.
This is a great style to learn the basics of rhyming. I call this style a vowel poem.
A E I O U – pick the vowel that will dictate the sound of your poem .
Warning: this style is quite grating and to some extremely annoying and noisy –
For my example I chose the( I) sound- This poem has annoyed quite a few readers but I love it… It’s a dizzy little poem….
(The Wings of a Fly)
in the corner
of my eye,
I see a fly, fly
buzzing by,
near to my eye,
[making me sigh
as it flies by,
wings rushing
towards the sky,
flying away
from my eye,
soaring high
for a fly
why oh why
does it want
to die,
flying so high
in the sky,
does it cry
for the other fly
that did die,
when it flew
into my eye
I swatted
that little black fly,
who flew
in my eye,
that did defy
and deny
her right to fly by
buzzing by my eye,
causing
the little fly
to die,
never saying
good-bye
to you,
who flies
so high away
from my eye
towards the sky
crying
for the little fly,
who in suicide,
succeeded
in her wish
to die,
by flying
in my eye
I sigh
from the sty
that's in my eye
from that fly
who flew
in my eye,
wondering why
she wanted
to die,
never hearing
her cry,
for it was you
that made
her want to die,
by seeing
through your lie
about an affair
with another fly,
leaving her
high and dry
to explode
and die,
in my teary
eye
who do you
cry for
as you fly
towards the sky
away from my
accusing eye,
for your sin
of deceit
and lust
where my eye
holds her
remaining dust,
for it was
not I
who made
her die,
it was you
who led her
in my eye,
you who
were once
a mighty fly,
turn away
from the sky,
set your wings
on downward path,
cleanse yourself
from damnation's wrath,
now its time
for you to die,
fly oh fly
in my other eye,
I weep
as I wait
for your reply
I told you it was annoying
my warmest
bob
