Poetic Bloomings invites us to attempt the Harrisham Rhyme.
The Harrisham Rhyme was
created by Harrisham Minhas, of Punjab,
India. It
consists of one six-line rhyming stanza. In this form, the last letter of
the first word of each line becomes the first letter of the first word of the
next line.
Rhyme scheme : ababab
God loved me so much, when He gave me you
Darling, you put a smile on my face
Grant it; of love’s struggles, we’ve had a few
Testing love’s tender embrace
Grace and forgiveness are heaven-spilled glue
Essential to keep a marriage in place

This is fun…I’ll try another
Duty may lecture and tasks may compile
Yet Muse keeps wheedling her bait
Taunting and teasing, words beg and beguile
Goading my love and my hate
…gentle persuasion and poetry smile
Everything else can wait…

…but only for so long! I’m fall-cleaning the living-room
today. That must be done before we may set up the tree.
