A little mood lighting

Here's a short poem I wrote while bored in bed one morning.

There once was a fly and an axe on a log.
Said the fly: "Good sir, my rear end is quite clogged."
Said the axe to the fly: "You look like a dog."
Said the fly to the axe: "Good sir, you must be mistaken!
There is a wrong turn that you must have taken!"
Said the axe: "But madam, you have hair all over!
If I didn't know better, I'd call you range rover!"
"Range Rover?! You said I look like a dog!"
"Now that I think about it, you look like a frog."
"I do believe that I'll just fly away."
"It was nice meeting you madam, and have a nice day."

The moral of this poem:
Don't ever talk to axes. They're dumber than they look.

Obviously just to test my skill at rhyming. Though completely pointless and more than a little stupid, the rhythm came out quite nicely.

That was very cute. I'm starting to think, Patricio, that you are better at this poetry writing thing then I am. Because no way am I creative enough to think of something that silly and cute and still make it sound good.

Lol, thank you Kaisha. You totally spelled rhyme wrong. But that's ok. :P

And thank you, Emily. I don't know whether to accept it and give you pointers, or take the Japanese route and deny it vehemently. Hmmmmm... I think I'll just keep quiet. :P

Lol. Either way is ok. I can handle constructive critisim, and I deffently don't mind it if it makes me better. Just, if you do, don't be too hard on me and try and mix in a compliment or two.
