I thought this may be fun. The previous person who posts either their haiku or limerack will then at the bottom post a word to be included in the next persons post and whether they want it to be a haiku or limerick.
For a haiku, the first line must have five syllables, the second seven, and then five again for the final line.
Ex: I went to a bed
Fluffy pillows all are there
Sleep now beckons me
And limericks as we know are the funny ones like
I once knew a lady from venus
Whose body was shaped like a ....
I won't finish that but you get the idea.
A limerick is a five-line poem written with one couplet and one triplet. If a couplet is a two-line rhymed poem, then a triplet would be a three-line rhymed poem. The rhyme pattern is a a b b a with lines 1, 2 and 5 containing 3 beats and rhyming, and lines 3 and 4 having two beats and rhyming. Some people say that the limerick was invented by soldiers returning from France to the Irish town of Limerick in the 1700's.
Okay.
Shall we try?
