~ The Poet's Place Cafe~

Originated by Danish poet, philosopher, scientist, mathematician, designer, and general genius jack of all trades Piet Hein, the Grook is a "verse characterized by irony, paradox, brevity, precise use of language, sophisticated rhythms and rhymes, revealing in a minimum of words and with a minimum of lines some basic truth about the human condition," as described and demonstrated in the following link: http://www.archimedes-lab.org/grooks.html . Specific structure is left to the imagination of the individual poet.

Let the creativity flow from your soul!
