Hi Portia,
That was an awesome mono-rhyme! And a wonderful story you told as well, not just a bunch of nonsequential rhyming words. I thinks these are difficult.
Good for you!
"I've tried to pen a short pantomime"
"Words become silent and lost in time"
Love those two lines
Good luck in the contest.

Ten lines of monorhyme! That is pretty good going now do one on "orange" or "silver". Lol. I am only joking that would be pretty nigh impossible, likewise purple. What is good about this is that it works as a poem and tels its own little story as well as simply rhyming line by line.

A delightful monorhyme where the tone is self-mocking. You even evoke our sympathy by having been disqualified after working overtime on that haiku.

Well, I hope you break through the clutter
with this one. It's hard to make sense with a Monorhyme.
Especially without torturing syntax.

I hope you do better this time around.

Peace, Lee

Excellent

Very cute! pen a pantomime... that would be difficult! lol
Very nicely done...
I do think that in the last line, that should be may be instead of maybe... it has a different meaning to say penning the poem may be a crime, and maybe it's a crime... see? ;)
Awesome job and great luck in the contest my friend!
Merry Christmas
love you
Cat

No doubt about it, this is a mono-rhyme alright, and a darn good mono-rhyme at that, Portia.
It's a contest entry so I wouldn't go so far as to consider it crime, heh-heh...
Well done,
Good luck in the contest.
~Dean :)
