The Amazing Pseudo-Haiku Chain



Pseudo Haiku = the only structure rule is they must be 3 lines of 5-7-5 syllables per line...topic can be anything of your choice.

The Chain= you must begin your pseudo-haiku using the last line of the poem before as the first line in your's.

I have seen these haiku chains get to 1000+ posts in other groups.

I begin with:

a haiku a day (5 syllables)
will keep the doctor away (7 syllables)
verbal supplement (5 syllables)

you begin with:

verbal supplement
