Poetry challenge: Monoryhme poem – Does a poem need to rhyme?

Does a poem need to rhyme?

A poem does not have to rhyme

a practice I employ all the time

although i may make an exception sometime

i always hope the poem is sublime

otherwise for me it won’t be worth a dime

I believe a poem can change your life forever. I know many poems I read as a child made a difference in my life. I learned to believe in me. My senses started living along side me. My appreciation for nature and life increased by one hundred percent. As a result I paint, love photography, and I listen and try to pay attention a little bit more to everything around me. I also became a teacher to honor all those teachers who set me straight about life and learning.
