Sensational Haiku Wednesday
Welcome to “Sensational Haiku Wednesday!”
hosted by Jenn at youknowthatblog.com Thanks Jenn!
The basics: Haiku is simple! It is 3
non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)
Here are Jenn's rules:
Structure: While Haiku may be written by some in other styles, for THIS meme only 5-7-5 is acceptable. At least one of your haiku must be in this format.
Theme/Prompt: We have a new prompt each week, and your haiku needs to be related to it, if not include the actual word in it. Feel free to leave a word suggestion in a comment!
Linking: When you post your link, link to the blog post with your haiku, not to the main page of your blog.
Reciprocate: If you participate and post your link on my website, you must have a link back here on your post. It’s only fair.
Folks not complying with the above risk having their links removed. Don’t make me be all “Grrrr” and stuff, it makes me grumpy! Thanks for your cooperation! P.S. This is a really busy time for me – I may not get around to everyone each week. Sorry about that, but unfortunately I need to attend to business before pleasure!
This week’s theme is: Fortitude
Popularity
Has become more important
than our own standards.
Stand up to the crowds
Have a spine and grow a pair
back your own beliefs.
You may not like me,
but you must at least respect
my integrity.
Loved those words for the pic.
ReplyDeleteExcellent! Words added more bravery for the cat ;)
ReplyDeleteOne of the hardest things to do is to respect someone for whom you have intense dislike!
