Perfectly Poetical: Haiku

Well, hello there! Welcome to August's Perfectly Poetical Tuesday (PerPoTues)!

  • Current poetic style: Haiku - Yesterday's post explains how to play along.
  • Up next: Ode - We're gonna simplify this down. Write a rhyming tribute to someone or something.
  • Next PerPoTues: September 8.
  • Want an email reminder? Just let me know! (I forgot to send the reminder last time - sorry! But next month I have a reminder for the reminder on my calendar.)
Can't wait to see what you do with the haiku! :)


[My haiku, "Sun"]

Blazing summer sun
Saps your strength; shows no mercy
Shadows are no match.
