That was a Grade 3 or 4 exercise, if I recall. My poem was rubbish, but thought about rhyming words ever after … and even memorized a number of simple, but well-known poems.
My peak came when I was 10: “Vernon the vulture lived in a wood. Although mama told him he’d never be good. He ate live rabbits, live snakes, and live snails. Instead of head first he swallowed their tails.” I’ve never come close again.

I take MY glasses off and everybody STILL recognizes me. Must’ve been a super power that I didn’t have.

One of my earliest poems was a grade school valentine that read
Remember the moon
Remember the stars
Remember the night we smoked cigars.
It rhymed anyway. Roy’s poem I wrote for the comic, so it’s pretty recent.
