haiku: the genie challenge
Lauren challenged me to write a haiku where I ask a genie for three wishes, one line per wish. Here we go:
First: College entrance.
Second: Good New Year for all.
Third? More syllables.
This turned out to be way, way harder than I thought it would be when I first read it. Thanks, Lauren. Now if only she’d tell me the secret of getting comments on a blog…
Truly, the secret
For getting more comments is
To elicit them.
For example: posts
That ask questions, demanding
Answers from readers.
It may also help
To encourage responses
That are not haiku.
Begin a trend; write
Sonnets, to challenge and dare.
Users will respond.
Yay, I love it! A+.
As for comments, the easiest way to get them is to make lots of mistakes. People can’t resist pointing them out.
