back in the days when we were young
immortal and full of song
we made our way along the difficult road
and carried on each of our backs a load
and when we arrived at the pearly shore
we swam in the waters
satisfied that we'd made our journeys true
what you do is up to you
but within every childhood is a happy dream
and we may be more than we seem

In A Contest Where Rhyming Is Specified?

Missed Rhyme!
Your rhyme scheme seemed to be working; then came shore coupled to waters-no rhyme. What happened? -
-
Why does the rhyme have to matter so much?
