I like your reasoning Zondrea

Recite the words take a chance
Strike a pose for rhythm and rhyme
Strike a chord and start the dance
In 4/4, 6/8 or 3/4 time


Eliza
It's never to late; just do it
I'll set pen to paper
Write now, not later
And post it so others may view it


Word dancer is happy

What's wrong with 3/3 time, Eliza - a bush verse waltz? Or 7/8, like the first half of 'Money', by Pink Floyd (not really a bush poem, I know, but it's all the same thing).
