Contest Description

care to try this dear soupers?… let’s write  a NEW , ORGINAL poem  using the japanese form, CHOKA...

it is a  short poem which uses the syllabic count of  5-7-7-5-7-7,  just 6 lines, just one verse...  choose one of these prompts for your poem:

1. About This Place    or   2. Not On A Monday  or  3. A Pond's Melody

                                                        ~

             - entries can be rhymed or unrhymed for creative purposes

           - chosen prompt is  the title of your poem

           - date, sponsor's name and contest name are included

           - all TPS rules must be followed

unique imagery,  overall poetic appeal and flow of expression are my guideposts for a win.
