Hey -- this is good Cathy. Only thing is I've forgotten the rules of hay(na)ku. Its on word count rather than syllables if I remember ???

I'll go and refresh my memory. It'll have to be tomorrow as it's already 1.30 here -- must go to bed.

Hi Cathy -- I'm back!

I've refreshed my memory on this form -- must try one!

The only thing I am wondering about yours is, does it tell more than show? Something to ponder!

Hi Cathy. wave.gif

Welcome to our new forum! PartyFavor.gif Balloons.gif

This form is so appealing and you've added your fantastical touch to this image I have in my mind with it. Hard to believe that 6 words can do so - but well done! You've inspired me to give this form a try.

I just have a few ideas on a change to the word 'prompts': elicits, evokes, stimulates, incites. Of these, I like 'incites' the most - but the choice of course is yours to take or toss any of these.

Hi Cathy...

Here are the rules I learned for Haiku...but there may be other forms???

First line - 5 syllables.
Second line - 7 syllables.
Third line - 5 syllables.

I am not sure if this fits into that scheme...is there another? Judi

Hi Judi

This form is Hay(na)ku -- not haiku. Yes, confusing isn't it?!! LOL!!

Briefly the form is

1st line -- one word
2nd line -- 2 words
3rd line -- 3 words

and you are restricted with syllable counts. Sounds easy,eh? Well I'm still puzzling on one. It's not so easy. My hat off to you Cathy!
