Half Measure - A Request of Time

This is a simple variation of common measure and there are two choices. The first is in iambic trimeter with two rhymes and the second consists of three rhymes. The lay out is as followed:

xxxxxa
xxxxxb
xxxxxa
xxxxxb

or

xxxxxa
xxxxxb
xxxxxc
xxxxxb

“A Request of Time”

Time, can’t you slow and waste
A while with me. Calm your
Ticking. Why so fast paced?
Such running be a chore.
