Miniver Cheevy , child of scorn

he lands and runs back and then b
he wept that he was never born a
goes flying through the air again b
as he had reasons
EXPLANATION
Each letter will match if it rhymes with the last
word of the line. The example shows that air
rhymes with there. If any other words have that
ending sound, it would also have the letter a
attached to it.
b

a
i miss you late at night
b
just to think about you

its my joy and delight
