This poem is an anchor line

Be patient and give it time

Time to see how the lines rhyme

And what makes this format rich


Did you see what was written?

The first two lines rhyme and then

For the third we rhyme again

But for the fourth line we switch


You see the pattern I bet

The first three lines are a set

The fourth’s like an epaulet

Weaving a uniform stitch


What do we get exactly?

A sense of stability

Woven very carefully

I guarantee it’s no glitch
