Anything Nan! Make it easy or difficult, I'm in! Since I'll be on vacation from August 12th until 26th and I'll be stuck in the middle of nowhere with not a computer in sight (I think they don't even know what it is) I will be posting late, but then... don't I always, so what else is new?  |

Wedge verse - Rhopalic Poetry I have to confess - I just dug this one out for fun - I've never written it either. The only rule I've found so far is that each successive word in each line of verse has to have one syllable more than the last. I see no rules about rhyming... So onward poeteers Write many rhopalics Make verses multiply subsequently This can be a fun exercise, don'tcha think?  |

Ah HA, so if you start a line with a one syllable word, the next word must have two syllables, the third three and so on. Well it's a good thing I've my vacation now, so off I go to my room with my Webster Thanks Nan for explaining. Titia [This message has been edited by Titia Geertman (edited 08-08-2001).] |
