Than-Bauk variation

Here are a few more Than-Bauk, where I have used a particular letter-sound instead of a rhyme on the 4th, 3rd, and 2nd syllables (lines 1,2,3) I find this to be a fun alternative to the limited rhyme version. Hope you enjoy. Let me know which ones you like. careful blue sea calm the sail breeze why spoil with land - spite words you ate gulped down angry - have apple, Doc - the first cool breath of Fall’s brisk leaves - a ball, raking - sex symbol ruse pol’tic’s rude lies eyes rent go blind - li’l pinking rose lips inked red, hushed by roar of falls

Hi Kim, Very challenging form here. I really liked this one, "spite words you ate, gulped down angry-have apple, Doc" clever and very funny..

Interesting take on Than-Bauk. These would not be easy to write either but a very creative style. Sara K
