Writing in iambic pentameter
Is not as easy as is looks because
You think that a word has two syllables
But it only has one-- like the word squire.
Then you are stuck having to change the line
Which leads to frustration because you can't
Think of new ways to rephrase the sentence.
It takes a great amount of your time
If you go and try to make each line rhyme.
But I find that can be hard at times.
I found it is best if you finish the
Poem with an even number of lines
Otherwise the poem just ends oddly.
Where do I go from here because I'm lost?
What more can I say about this subject?
Dang it, all I need is one more line-- shoot!

I liked that, pretty clever. I admit I don't know much about it, but it's nicely put together.

well, it isn't all rhythmicly Iambic Pentameter, but the syllables are nice. Well, I hate Iambic Pentameter so you survived better than I.
