How would I go about summing up Hatred Ridicule & Contempt in a Haiku? Like this: -
Libel action trial
Lawyer partnership turmoil
Who will win and lose?
How tempting, then, to take this a step further for the Orangeberry Summer Splash and invite fellow authors to write their own. Here are the first six: -
Donna Brown, Double Take Tales: -
Three tales with a twist
And a glimmer of bright hope
All have a message
Darlene Jones, Embattled: -
Burqas and beaches
Mysteries and miracles
Two lives. Two lovers
Keri Nola, A Year On Your Path To Growth: -
A year of growing
Authentically each step
Empower yourself
Marie-Anne Mancio, Whorticulture: -
Antebellum life
Choose friend, lover, whore, or wife
Whose lie is biggest?
Gean Penny, Bobby Jay: -
Patches fill its cloth
Stories shared between those left
Lonely for Grandpa
And finally for now, Kim Dalferes, I Was In Love With A Short Man Once: -
Crazy Southern Irish gal
Grows up to become?
Heartfelt smiles and fun.
More to follow, no doubt!

ReplyDeleteIt's harder than you think but a great way to define the focus of a book. Thank you for hosting!
ReplyDeleteThat is way cool...I've got to work on mine.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Hotel Alphabet..it does help define the focus of the book.
I'm going to link to this from my blog if that's kosher.
Dawn, feel free to link - only too pleased!
