Becky’s Haiku: Saturday Night TV
Saturday night I
Stay up late to see Star Trek
On my small view screen.
Well, after some more contemplating,the little kid inside of me got all stirred up and, consequently, another limerick came to mine. This one contains a journey and an alliteration but is quite silly. However, I did have fun writing it as I imagined a happy little boy hopping and skipping down the street:
Jumping Joey
Jumping Joey went on a journey
Jolly jumping down Juniper Alley.
Joey was so jolly;
He jumped up, my golly
and jolly jumped back home eating jelly.
Okay, I am in day two of this poetry class and our assignment is to write a limerick containing a journey and alliteration. Limericks are known to be humorous and writing humor is quite a challenge for me. And composing one limerick with a journey and alliteration was a bit much so I wrote two separate limericks to accomplish this assignment. One focuses on a journey I once embarked on while the other limerick as an attempt at a more humorous alliteration. Do you think I completed the assignment correctly? I will say, I had fun creating these two short poems and I hope you enjoy them.
Surprising Journey
One day I began a journey
When it was cold and blustery
In the sky I gazed
And was quite amazed
To see a sundog watching me
Bessie Boo
Bessie Boo bought ballerina shoes
Dyed in black and blinding blue
She met a bashful knight
Who could not dance just right
And banged her toes all black and blue
