'I' before 'e' except after 'c' <br />Im afraid that rule wasn't helpful to me! <br /> <br />I'm deficient at spelling and find it absurd <br />The incomprehensible weirdness of words <br /> <br />I'm reintroduced to the seismic array <br />Of words that don't follow the rules everyday! <br /> <br />My daughter is eight and <br />I hope she is free <br /> of this problem with words <br />that weighs heavy on me <br /> <br />My neighbour and I feel the the same it would seem <br />We discuss the dilemma whilst sipping caffeine <br /> <br />It was all very foreign when I was at school <br />Can you find the words that are breaking the rule?<br /><br />Stevie Taite<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/exception-to-the-rule-2/
