Ode to “doggerel”

Think not what the metre says,
Iambic, penta, dactyl.
Pour the words, barely rhyming,
Forget rules for a while.

Why bother if its “abab”
If its “ode” or “ballad "
No ones gonna judge, you’re
not competing with the bard.

Rhyme on, you budding poets
What matters is content,
Don’t worry what form it takes,
Should speak the words you meant.
