Prosodic Poetry (Rhyme Royal Sequence) <br /> <br />Prosodic Poesy's tree, under the care <br />Of Empress new, has gained a greater height; <br />Yet scope there is for it to better fare. <br /> <br />By poets all, if reared and raised aright, <br />Enhanced can be its height as well as might. <br />A mite of manure mixed by each of us <br />Can make its soil more salubrious. <br /> <br />If just some moments more we try to spare <br />To shield our Poesy-tree from blasting blight, <br />Its fruit will faster form, we are aware. <br /> <br />So let's root out, at once, the tares we sight; <br />If left unweeded, vermin they'll invite. <br />This might prove, to Poesy's health, hazardous <br />So, watchful we should always be, like Argus. <br /> <br />Though this may call for patience rather rare, <br />Before long, the load will become light - <br />The profits of this pursuit when we share. <br /> <br />'Tradpoesy' proffers prospects that are bright <br />To one who offers off'ces as her 'Knight'. <br />So, volunteers, do board her De Lux bus - <br />Wont to which, you'll find your journeys joyous!<br /><br />Dr. Tulsi Hanumanthu<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/prosodic-poetry/
