During the writing process there are days when you just can’t get anything done.
You need inspiration.
I did what all writers do in this situation – I logged onto to Twitter and cruised the #amwriting tweets. This is where I discovered Haiku Monday (or was it Tuesday?).
I wrote this haiku:
“Paragraph or verse.
I string together my words.
Meaningful and terse.”
Then I started to write haiku as my main character. It was a fun way to get inside her head. Or just another way to waste time. A little of both.
I’m going to start my own version of Haiku Monday with poems (not all Haiku’s) I wrote from Dani’s point of view. Here is my first one. Please feel free to share. 🙂
In case you’re wondering what the hell a Haiku is…..
Haiku (hi-koo) – a Japanese poem of seventeen syllables, in three lines of five, seven, and five, traditionally evoking images of the natural world.
I dare you to write one of your own. Right Now. And Post it to me on Facebook or Twitter. Or leave a comment below.
Peace. Love. Haiku.
