Despite the changing rhyme patterns, does this work?

Question

The Scottish Space programme?

The Scottish space programme has been rather glum

attempts at a sattelite launch, doomed to fail

so much more experience is yet still to come

If our spirits should lift, whereas now, we just ail

The name for our programme, we took from the Greek

The Rockets we chose would all be christened "Meta"

We chose that one name, in less than a week

(They were nearly called Keech, but we thought this was better!)

When last year we launched, the bold Meta 1

it turned left and not right and flew intay the sun

Again that same year, we'd the lame Meta 2

which exploded on ignition, there was such a to do!

Then the suns rays put paid, with such a high degree

as it fried up the tiles on wee poor Meta 3

Answer 1

It works very well.  The pattern changes keeps listeners listening and alters the syncopation of the music.  Wonderful

mixture!

Answer 2

Is it yours? The rhyme si good
