I'm just no good

I'm just no good
at rhyming.
It makes me feel
so bad.
I'm just no good
at rhyming,
And that's why
I'm so blue.

My teacher asked
if I could find a word that rhymes with "hat."
"It's
something that a dog might chase."
?
"Aha!"
I said. "A car!"
?
My teacher asked
if I could find a word that rhymes with "wizard."
"It's
something small and with a tail."
?
"Aha!"
I said. "A puppy!"
?
My teacher asked
if I could find a word that rhymes with "wall."
"It's
something you might try to catch."
?
"Aha!"
I said. "A lizard!"

I'm just no good
at rhyming.
I'm sorry, but
it's true.
I'm just no good
at rhyming,
And that's why
I'm so sad.

I'm pretty good
with meter,
And with spelling
and with timing.
But I'll never be
a poet,
'Cause I just
can't rhyme words at all.
