Morning Text

by The QuillOak Editors

1Before the news, before the mail,

2before the world has had its say,

3I want my words to reach you first:

4good morning. You're my favourite way

5to start a day.

How this poem works

Measured from the text on this page, not copied from a summary. Counts are approximate: syllables and rhymes come from the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary, which models General American English, so dialect, older pronunciation, and performance can all change what you hear.

Shape
5 lines · one 5-line stanza
End rhyme
ABCBB.
Line length
Mostly 8-syllable lines (tetrameter length).
The poem’s silhouette — approximate syllables per line, measured from the text above. Even bars mean a measured line; ragged bars mean the poem sets its own widths.
