Rhyme Help Poem by Douglas Scotney
Rhyme Help
Yesterday, for fun
and to help rhyming poets,
I fabricated 'quatped' and 'fearfuss'
as names for a bed
(yet to be illustrated.)
They're from 'four foot'
in Latin and Deutsch,
and nod to the 'charpoy',
the cool Indian bed-version
derived from 'four foot' in Persian.
Byron, wanting a rhyme with 'Juan',
found Gaelic for 'Canto' is 'Duan'.
