Friday Fling #163 January 13th 2012

This week we’re paying tribute to caregivers! It’s a poetry blog party for all those who care for the needy of all ages and needs. Parents, medical personnel, anyone who provides a service to those in need!

Michelle is further challenging you to write your tribute in a new format developed by Fling regular contributor Sonnet Diva, which she calls the “Rebel Three Step” after guess who? No it’s not got anything to do with anyone’s alimentary canal. But it is elementary, my dear Flinger:

“The Rebel Three Step” invented by Sonnet Diva

Each line has eight syllables. The first three lines of each stanza ending word rhymes. Then the last line is a repeating refrain throughout all the other stanzas.

Here’s Lori’s example:

This Week the Friday Fling Makes a Giant Rebel Three Step Tribute To Caregivers!

Be sure to save time to read and comment gratitudinally on your fellow Pals’ Three Steps. Then give a care when you step out on your wonderful winter weekend!
