Untitled All hail our apple trees festooned with fallen snow. Tankards gripped — tight in hand — we wassail friend and foe. Note: Couplet of rhyming alexandrine lines (12 syllables). 12/12 and a/a rhyme; definite rhythm. For:
Had to look it up to be sure as in my dialect it's two syllables: Wassail (/ˈwɒsəl/, /-eɪl/; Old Norse "ves heil", Old English was hál, literally: be hale) is a beverage of hot mulled cider, drunk traditionally as an integral part of wassailing, a Medieval Christmastide English drinking ritual intended to ensure a good cider apple harvest the following year. Can be a noun or a verb. 103.491 |
| My favorite part of "winter" is the first and last snow and any day when the sun shines... like earlier. So 5 winter haikus. 1. Swiftly snow falls, a carpet for sandaled-feet of the bobcat Not a haiku but haiku-ish: (English syllables: 3/7/3; 11/14/7 Japanese 'on'); a seasonal word, snow; the comma cuts it into two parts; two images (more-or-less), snow and bobcat. What does it evoke? Maybe "silent" would be better than "swiftly'. It could evoke the silence of a heavy snow or the awe of seeing a bobcat. I dunno... I only write this stuff. 2. Carpet of fresh snow — sandaled footprints of the bobcat (4/5/4; 9/15/7) em-mark to break, a clearer two images than above and doesn't feel like a sentence. Evokes? Awe maybe. 3. Carrots sweetened by frost — grey whiskers over thin lips This one is (4/5/4 σ or 9/10/8 'on') frost indicates season (autumn, early winter), the em-mark — cuts into two parts, grey whiskers indicates age. It could evoke "age", maybe the sweetness of growing old. 4. Pale yellow rays — geraniums lean towards frosted windows (4/6/4 or 8/14/10) again frosted indicates winter, the juxtaposition might evoke longing or hope. 5. A figure huddled in blankets — one bulb lights the hovel Hmm... has a cutting punctuation. But what is the season? Winter is implied by 'huddled in blankets'. What emotion evoked? Sadness or loneliness maybe as poverty is also implied. (5/5/4 or 8/13/7) 103.489 |
