I was posting at the other site I go to, and I seen a form of poetry I didn't know about. And I like it  Those of you who know me know that I LOVE haikus and tankas ect. I like the syllable counts.. hehe. The form of poetry I seen is called Shadorma. It has 7 lines... Line 1 : 3 syllables Line 2 : 3 " Line 3 : 5 " Line 4 : 3 " Line 5 : 3 " Line 6 : 7 " Line 7 : 5 " Here is an example that I wrote.. now.. it is my first one.. so .. be nice LOL.
From what I could find about this form, it doesn't have to be about any one topic (ex.. haikus are about nature... tankas about love.. ect). It does not have rhyme. Just count those syllables. If anyone knows if I am wrong in what I found.. Please let me know  With that explained.. have fun writing and counting Oh... please post in here to let me know you where you posted your poem if you choose to take the challange... My puter is down and I'm using Dave's, so I'm not on as much as I usually am right now. I definately do NOT want to miss anyone's poem Thanks.Tara "in my field of paper flowers and candy clouds of lullaby i lie inside myself for hours and watch my purple sky fly over me" - Imaginary by Evanes [This message has been edited by rosepetals25 (04-17-2003 09:24 AM).] |

Color me confused...[now that Easter's here, I'll just dip myself in egg-dye...] but here is what little I found on the Spanish style of poetry, Shadorma... ~*~ The Shadorma (pronounced shad-oor-muh) is another type of Spanish syllabic poem of 6 unrhymed lines. ----------------------------------- Stanzas : 1 Stanza Type : Sestet Lines : 6 Accents : Varies Syllables : Varies between 3, 5, and 7 per line Rhyme : None Pattern : xxx xxxxx xxx xxx xxxxxxx xxxxx ~*~ Hence my confusion - this says six...yours says seven lines...does anyone know which is correct? Hey NAN...we need you! |
