Lime Meringue Pie

It was my idea
Not theirs to steal
Like slithery eels
Stealing out of woven creels
On my knees
I knelt to appeal
Truly the offence is real
A most awful ordeal
No use to conceal
Though it might make us reel
It was MY meal
And zestful.
Ideal!

  4. Thank you, Bill. I’ve developed a method which sometimes I use. I list all the words I can find that rhyme, then find a way to put them together. But the rhythm can’t be written to formula. That has to come fresh every time
