Japanese Whispers

Post by ItsAGuess on Sat Mar 21, 2009 7:23 am

Time to go from bad to verse
Here's an english-haiku version of a game of chinese whispers.

To play copy the haiku and change one word for your go. A repetition of a previous haiku or two goes in a row are not allowed.

The new haiku should follow the 5/7/5 meter, have one phrase over at least two lines, and make sense on its own (artistic licence allowed).

Lets see what we end up with...here we go:

An aging willow
its image unsteady in
the flowing stream.


(Please go to the last page of this thread to find the current haiku. Thanks)

The current haiku is ...

Soft summer music
Baby ducks paddling over
Painted yellow notes

An open window
its worn frame unsteady in
the flowing stream
