HAIKU VERSUS RHYTHM AND RHYME

My favourite pastime:
crafting poetry in rhyme
but not so this time

Ordered by Debbie:
from your comfy box break free
haiku it will be

Debbie, what's with you
to rhythm and rhyme I'm true
I loathe haiku

I'll stay in my sphere
sans rhythm poetry's queer
Oops! I rhymed in here

    Hello Delysia, thank you very much for enjoying my poem. Indian Ink, it is more than it reads. And thank you for pointing out mt T W. poem. I loved and Favorited his poem. ....ps...I enjoyed the humor in these haiku the first time I read them. Could not help and read them all over again. love the way you broke the no rhyming rule in haiku. :-) ...PD

    Don't be blue. Stay true to you. Loved this witty write, Delysia. How did Deb feel about it? I know she has very specific ideas on how haiku should be written. Frankly, I think is a way cool commentary on poetic forms and how seriously some folks take them. Brian's blog gets into this. Love, Carolyn

    I've been trying to spread my wings a bit too, Delysia but I too am apt to write in rhyme if left to my druthers. Thanks for your kind comments. Love, Joyce
