I’m back and ready to haiku this week! 🙂
My haikus for RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Challenge–a fun activity and contest that is open for everyone to participate, and helps keep our creative writer’s mind active! This week’s words are: Style & Fresh.
“Sing Away”
The minstrel’s style
refreshingly new to hear,
no more screeching notes.
~
“In Style”
She had style and class
Fresh as a cool cucumber,
A true frog empress.

Love the last line of the second one. Nice twist. 🙂 Positive end to the first as well. Screeching notes are never good.

I went for humor this week 🙂 I’m glad you liked them. A screeching minstrel would never be a good thing. 😀

Definitely not. He, or she, wouldn’t do much business. 🙂

I like both of them! The first one made me chuckle, because I was wondering how the minstrel’s music had sounded before. 😉

Lol, I don’t think our ears would want to know how he sounded before. ;D Haha, I also wonder how he’s made a living so far! 🙂

Well, either the poor fellow has been scraping by, or someone has been paying him a lot of money to be a bad musician. *lol*
