In my last creativity post, I was challenged by Indeed to try and write a poem- I used the poem as a small vent about my work schedule. This time around I wanted to try again, but not using the same prompt- but a writing exercise to get me out of my comfort zone, this time I went to Inc, whose articles Ive used in the past for these types of blogs.
Today I will be writing #22 out of their list of #32:
Take 5 minutes to write a haiku (Japanese style 3 line poem with a 5-7-5 syllable structure) about your day or night.
For this, I wanted to go away from such a negative vibe and decided to write a haiku about my two cats, again, words are far from my strong point, so enjoy the silliness:
Grey and orange pair,
Chasing sunbeams everywhere,
Warmth and love they share.
Out of the two styles of writing, the Haiku was way more intresting to write and posed a neat challenge with the three line rule, it let me have more creative thinking compared to the poem, in my opinion the lack of rules in a poem give to much free reign to what is and isn't a poem, which always makes me second guess.
