The Lune I is a short, simple poem. It consists of three lines, and can be considered the American answer to the Haiku. The Lune was created by Robert Kelly in the 1860's.
The Lune is written with 13 syllables dispersed over three lines with no restrictions. Lune Structure: Line 1...5 syllables Line 2...3 syllables Line 3...5 syllables Because the Lune is so short, like the Haiku, you need a single subject for your topic. Lune 1 Examples: Babies Babies always cry, eat and sleep, then they cry some more. Birds Birds, they love to fly in weather that's not so windy. The Lune II is built in words rather than syllables. This form was created by Jack Collom. Lune II Structure: Line 1...3 words Line 2...5 words Line 3...3 words Lune II Examples: Cats I love cats that always like to play but don't scratch. The Sun The sun hides behind clouds of stormy gray yielding to rain. Discussion Topic: Why do you think it's important to keep your subject for a Lune 1, or a Lune II simple? Assignment: Write three each of the Lune 1, and the Lune II as described in this lesson. {b]References http://www.writing.com http://ettcweb.lr.k12.nj.us/forms/lune.htm. www.netaxs.com/katz/teachers.htm
