Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
I have a jacket of many a pocket
(please have a heart and do not mock it),
a fisherman’s vest, I’ve heard it said,
(though I’m no angler, it serves me instead)
and certainly it has no sleeves
(still, my worldly goods it does receive)
a lifetime’s stories it can contain
(no, I’ll not lend it is my refrain).
Line count: 8
