Selected Poems of Robert Frost

In reading poems by Robert Frost
I plowed on through despite the cost
His rhyming stuff? It was okay
(Though I seldom got what he tried to say)

His blank verse though, I just don't know
Why that genre is allowed to grow
Poetry should always rhyme
Other verse? Name it a crime

I didn't like this as much as some do
America's poet, they say. Me? Ewww.
I'm sorry; I should probably stop the jeering
(this is why I studied engineering)
