CPC POETRY CHALLENGE PREVIEW: The Friday Fling Writes Undercover Ukiahs!
This is a special preview for the CPC Friday Fling poetry challenge. Poems should be posted there when the challenge begins Thursday evening at 9 P.M. EDT.
Friday Fling #148 September 30th 2011
Now that Fall is officially here and the weather is cooling, most of us are about to go undercover! Under blankets when we sleep that is.
But going undercover can have other meanings, and those are the ones we are interested in having you write about this week! We mean of course romantic “undercover” work, or spying or undercover detective work!
Some of you know that Cheryl invented and I named a poetry format called the “Ukiah,” which is Haiku backwards, because that’s what it is, a poem of three lines and 7-5-7 syllables instead of the Haiku’s 5-7-5. Also, Ukiahs are not confined to nature subjects as Haikus properly are.
Our baby Ukiah is now a three and a half years old poetry format toddler. We’re giving him – or is it her – a chance to strut some stuff by being this week’s Favored Format on the Friggin’ Fabulously Fun Friday Fling.
This week the Friday Fling writes Undercover Ukiahs!
Be sure to save some secret time to read and comment Unsurrepticiously on your fellow Pals’ Ukian Utterances. Then go do something deliciously secret or Undeniably Unbelievable this weekend!
Fickle Finger of Fate Award for September 23rd
Congratulations Keiki!
Oh I was so hoping you would choose the Ukiah *smiling*
