This is a poem oh so simple
We were not outright challenged to do so
But on the side of my smile there's a dimple
Because this is too easy in terms of how poetry goes


¨Use the word Anteater inside of a poem of yours¨
Haha, challenge already completed!
This poem is structured in lines of fours
But my words have quickly depleted


So with a sigh
I say to you good bye
And give you one more short poem that has yet to be defeated


Roses are red
Violets are violet
Color is the quality of an object or substance with respect to light reflected by the object, usually determined visually by measurement of hue, saturation, and brightness of the reflected light.


The author's comments:

Before we write our poems in class our teacher reads us a famous one. One day, my teacher read out a poem with the word "anteater" in it, she made a comment challenging us to use that word in a poem, this is my take on that challenge.
