FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING 60th Anniversary Haiku Challenge!!!
|
Can't Post

|
In honour of The Fellowship of the Ring's 60th Anniversary, this haiku challenge is for a creation with a FotR theme. Don't be afraid... these really are fun and very addictive :) What is HAIKU? Originating in Japan, poets started writing traditional English haiku in the 1950's composed of 3 lines of 5-7-5 syllables. The last words in each line do not need to rhyme. Check out the example below. So it begins (by gramma 7/29/14) Road goes ever on ...... (5 syllables) Down from the door, it began ...... (7 syllables) Finding Fellowship ...... (5 syllables) Sam, Dear Sam (by gramma 7/29/14) Dragons, trees and elves makes me wonder what may be down ol' Bilbo's roads But taters and herbs are the business of Gamgees, my ol' gaffer says CHECK OUT MORE GAMES AND MAGPIE'S FOOTERS OVER ON MAIN!!

To Mordor they came The wrath of the Dunedain By horse and on foot With a will of steel Distracting all, securing Return of the king
A few harmless flakes working together can unleash an avalanche of destruction.

A Haiku challenge? Now how many syllables? Goodness this is hard! (That was just awful. I’m not very good at these. I think I will pass.)
