Naked Verse

A friend told me that one of his office mates liked to write poetry in the nude.  He said this not from his direct experience, but from descriptions of her inspiration (he claimed).  To this I immediately responded,

"You once knew a poet named "Trude"  
"Who wrote poetry while in the Nude?"

And this was the inspiration for my own, "Naked Verse", which followed a few minutes later:


Naked Verse

There once was a poet (an amateur)
Who wrote naked   Iambic   Pentameter.
To his spouse he proposed
They take off their clothes
And make love with a nouveaux parameter
