The Birthday Blabbermouth


With megaphone held tight in hand

A gesture grand

She makes the plea

To you and me

-

It's WhatsHerHoozy's special day!

Rejoice, I say!

Announce her age

And spam her page!

-

Come, write a poem, sing a song

I'll tag the throng!

Calm down now, lass

Pain in the ass

A/N: This poetry form is called Minute.

I don't know whether the Minute is pronounced as min-it or mi-noot, but Minute Poetry is a rhyming verse form consisting of 12 lines of 60 syllables written in iambic meter. An iamb is a unit of rhythm in poetry that consists of one syllable that is not accented or stressed followed by one syllable that is accented or stressed. Joyce Kilmer's poem "Trees" was written in iambic meter.

Excerpt from "Trees":

I think that I shall never see

A poem lovely as a tree.

The term "meter" is the pattern of the beats in a poem. It is also called a foot. Each foot has a certain number of syllables in it, usually two or three syllables. The difference in types of meter is which syllables are accented and which are not.

Minute Poetry is formatted into three stanzas of 8-4-4-4, 8-4-4-4, 8-4-4-4 syllables, and a rhyme scheme of aabb, ccdd, eeff.
