Got it right, got it right
Doctor Williams
Got it right
The trick is in the meter
solid rhythm, perfect beat
Well balanced measure
Pluck the string elegan’ly
Don’t forget the tercet
A quatrain will suffice
Just keep it in just meter
Or the critics will complain
That you have made no mastery
Of that which Williams claimed
Yet me I like my brevity
And dabble in vain rhymes
But The meter,
O the meter
I will take
and
do no harm.
