A plethora of classes Information so vast Knowledge made perfect With memory that lasts
A mind full of ideas Just waiting their turn For subjects so perfect They test what I learned
I need to capture the magic The chances so few A simple touch of a finger Produces treasures to view

Is this about online college? When I read this, it reminds me of when I was in school online. Also, my brain wants to changed "I learned" into "I've learned", and it wants to shorten "I need to capture the magic" somehow.

Thanks guy. It is truly about me becoming a photographer. I am taking classes online and I suffer from memory loss due to past spinal meningitis and current meds. So I made a list of words and then wrote some random sentences in a list. When I began to write the actual poem there were some that rhymed and I went with that. I do understand your comments and next time will stay away from the rhyming.

I think this is a really cool poem. Also while I agree with Tara that sometimes rhyming makes us force words, I have actually never noticed that with any of your poetry. You seem to have a real natural rhyming ability. The words in this poem seem natural to me and I think it flows really well.

I think your rhyming is great! Don't stay away! Maybe a thesaurus can help you pare down any extra long phrases.
