I'm knot sew good with words
Like Yoda, english no I knot
I try two spell them like I herd
butt still this problem I dew got.
When I right my love notes
like shake spear, I think their grate
butt when I look at what I wrote,
Wrong words all buy the crate.
I want to bee abel two right my mind
like I speak it sew easy
am I the only won off my kind?
Is that why they tease me?
I no when you here these words
you won't under stand
but read what you just herd
and my problem will seam more grand.

option 2
This poem should make sense when you hear it but to read it not so much as all though all of the words are real and spelt right the wrong version of the spelling is used.

Thanks for entering my contest - you are so right - in hearing it, one would think everything is OK with this poem, but on reading it, it is plain to see that not all is as it may sound.
Best wishes,
Hoosierpoet
