Writing Poetry

It can be quite hard to find words that will rhyme
And often can take up a great deal of time;
You think of a line which expresses quite well,
The meaning or story you're wishing to tell,
And then you discover there's really no word
For ending the next line that you'd have preferred.
So it's back to the start of the couplet again,
And the need to spend ages racking your brain
For ways to express the ideas in your mind,
And regularly while you are writing you'll find,
You have to revise what you've written before,
Even though doing so is such a bore.
