I have attempted dimeter only once and wasn't very happy with the result, but I will post it for whatever reaction it will get.

Saint Shakespeare

When I was young
and ripe, and wore
my hemlines high
and necklines low,
a bald man at
a party saw
a trinket on
a silver chain,
which rested in
the valley that
two hills contain--
and leaning in
for a good look
"Is that a saint's
medal?" he guessed.
I answered yes.
