Haiku for You

[Swatopluk]

but not to polish

The ice is melting
In both the polar regions

[Opsa]

the bears are in heat.

The tropics are cold
Ice is on the oranges

This is the short way
To express things in lyrics

Who would be willing to participate in a new lyric challenge involving sonets? The tricky part would be to incorporate words set up by the previous player (i.e. write a sonet that must include the following 4 words and at least one used in the rhyme: sunshine, drown, purple, tough. Then choose 4 words for the next player)?

[Opsa]

direct and simple!

Go for it, Swato!
It will be an elite club

[Sibling DavidH]

With just one member!

Shall I compare it
To some fiendish brain torture?

[Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith]

Haiku, bad enough!

word challenge is tough
when only five, seven, five

[Sibling DavidH]

Sonnets - eight and six!

         

When I consider
how my brain is spent - yarooogh!


_{If Milton and Shakespeare were alive today, they'd turn in their graves.}

[Swatopluk]

Should we pickle it?

About those sonnets
Italian, French or English?

[Sibling DavidH]

Those are too easy!

Don't be planet-ist:
The Whoople tongue is lovely.

Maybe just two lines
Alternating rhyme would work

[Swatopluk]

That's pre-school level

The verse to use is
Dactylic heptameters

[Opsa]

Exhibitionist!!!


Twelve syllables of
seasonal contemplation

[Sibling DavidH]

And drunken coma.

Yesterday I had
A chocolate dactyl for tea.

[Swatopluk]

Pterodactyl's out
