I'm with Tim on the rhyme, Susan--but it'll be an enjoyable task.

I've written one poem in dimeter--and then only as an entry in a contest that called for a poem longer than I like to write. I was so embarrassed by its length when it was accepted for a magazine that I suggested the editor print it as tetrameter couplets. He didn't, but when I put it in my book I did, to save space (cheeseparing Yankee that I am).

Yours is the right length.
