The Grass is Greener on the Other Side.

The grass is greener on the other side
no matter how good you are,
there is always something else which feels more right,
of that we can be sure.

In winter, it's the summer
and in summer, the winter,
The other side it has to be,
a little cooler when it's brighter.

The poor thinks rich and the rich thinks peace,
no matter where we stand,
always the other side it is.
For curly, it's straight and straight thinks zing,
for the fair it's the tan,
and the happiness it would bring !

For most people, it's the childhood they run after,
And for a child, it is all in the eagerness to grow older.
For short it's tall, and for fat it's thin,
we see something better and there! It begins.

Why don't we just take a break,
step out of ourselves and see,
the beauty which is withheld,
and tell ourselves,
"The Grass may be greener on the other side,
and this is what makes me, ME. "

Umm okie so this is how I rhyme.

So, I write a sentence that I want to write according to the theme of the poem. Then consider the last line. As such:

I am so cute

So the last word is cute. Then I go around A to Z and try to write words that rhyme with this word. So, as such:

Cute is the word I want to rhyme.
So lets start with A.

Aute? No
Bute? Maybe. Short for Beautiful.
Cute? Nah wont repeat it.
Dute? Dude? Mayyybe. But let's move on.
Eute? Is that a word? Well, not yet.
Fute? I don't know if that is a word. I think not.
Gute? Don't know if that is a word.
Hute? Word? Vote!
iute? Not a word.
Jute? Like Jhoot? Nah
Kute? Oh thats Kute again.
Lute? Like, Lut? Prophet Lot, cute? I don't think so. I've read the Bible.
Mute? Yeah! Lets stop here. I found my word.

So, next. Try to form a sentence with the word "mute" at the end. Oh it should also match with the theme. Oh, and I try to do this fast.

Sooooo. I have this:

Maria is so cute,
When I see her on TV, I go mute.

Your turn to rhyme!

@ChipmunkErnie Wow, sounds amazing. Tell me more.

@nobodyishome Been so long since I worked on it. I guess it's a sort of "quest" story where the hero heads out to follow his master's orders and encounters various dangers/situations. It's so far in the future the sun is dying, the moon is widening it's orbit and moving away from the earth, and the line between magic and science is blurred.

@ChipmunkErnie Sounds like we are heading towards an Apocalypse.
