#TankaTuesday #Poetry Stars No. 264 | #CreateYourOwnForm

Posted on by Colleen M. Chesebro

Welcome to our weekly poetry stars’ celebration. This week’s challenge was to create your own syllabic form using none of the Japanese forms. Wow! You all blew me away with your creativity! There is a syllabic form for everyone in this collection.

Check out all the new forms:

1.Reena Saxena9.The Versesmith17.Colleen Chesebro
2.willowdot2110.Sally Cronin18.Ruth Klein
3.Harmony Kent11.ben Alexander19.D. Avery
4.Trent McDonald12.Yvette M Calleiro20.Jane Aguiar
5.Veera13.Selma21.Laura McHarrie
6.Gwen Plano14.Kerfe22.You’re next!
7.Jules15.theindieshe  
8.Annette Rochelle Aben16.sangeetha  

I’ve created a page called New Syllabic Forms. Feel free to use these forms in future challenges. I added the link to the cheat sheet so you can find them quickly. There is also a link in the navigation menu.

Many thanks to everyone for playing along and creating a new form. This type of creativity challenges you to be innovative when you’re writing. Don’t be afraid to experiment. Look what Diana Peach did with a short story. I love a novel with a bit of poetry at the beginning of each chapter. Mix forms, be bold, and keep writing syllabic poetry.

See you tomorrow for the new challenge!

  5. I love these challenges and the poetry that comes from it. I didn’t get a chance to join in this week but will be experimenting on my own 🙂 xo
