Failing hero Poems

The giant fiddled with a mage,
This made the wizard filled with rage,
He used power but as hard as he try,
He soon became a giant fry.

The dragon slept very sound,
Until by the hero he was found,
The dragon awoke at the wrong time,
The hero was cooked for his crime.

An active volcano had use it’s time,
About the time the hero climbed,
He dawdled long and was disrupted,
For the volcano soon erupted.

The hero tried to cast a charm,
It fired wrong and did him harm.
In a different way, he did quite well,
But he didn’t use the right spell.

Cute. ^_^ I liked it. It reminded me of a limerick. Although, I'm not sure, since I know nothing of poetry. Please, write some more.

Finally, the hero dies and noone really mourns his death. I've been waiting a long time for something like this :evil:

They're pretty close to limericks. Limericks are five lines though, with a rhyme scheme of AABBA. I'd call them couplets more than anything, though, since they're four lines and have a rhyme pattern of AABB.
