This one just didn't work for me...

the last line injected some humor, but, with the varying line lengths and with each line a complete phrase in itself, the rhyme felt forced. Couplets often emphasize this forced feel. I think the first line had an unneeded "you" at the end. I think if you used a bit more enjambment to de-emphasize the rhyme and played a bit more with the humor you showed in the last line this poem would be improved. Think about it and see if you agree...

Omit the "you" in the first line

I have no idea where that came from.

Anyway, thanks jim for the ambitious feedback. But really, thiis one was just for giggles. :)

This is one of those perfect pieces

To stick in collections of sobriety;

After a handful of somber pieces

Inject a giggle instead.
