Underground Writers Network Forum Challenge of the week - #5
Challenge of the week - #518 Years AgoI was thrilled to read some of the responses to the previous challenge. It is amazing how a word can bring so many different creative ideas to all.
To make it easier for all to read, I created links to each of the postings. I look forward to reading all the wonderful works you've created. Now for this week's challenge... Have you heard of Palindrome Poetry? I know, I thought it was an illness too... hehe, just kidding. ::tongue:: Quote:
A palindrome, by definition, is a word, phrase, verse, sentence, or even poem that reads the same forward or backward. It stems from the Greek word palindromos: palin, meaning again, and dromos, meaning a running. Combining the two together, the Greek meaning gives us, running back again... The carefully placed words form the same sentence, whether it is read forward or backward. For example, 'Mirrored images reflect images mirrored' which includes a word in the center as a reversal point for the sentence or even the poem. Example: Sunrise Mornings fresh and clear makes sunrise spectacular with birds chirping - GLORIOUS - chirping birds with spectacular sunrise makes clear and fresh mornings. Please let me know of your works so that I can post links for everyone to read ;) I am excited to see what your great minds come up with! Have fun! |

[no subject]18 Years AgoGreat challenge and one that takes a little thought.
I doubt I have ever invented one, but have used them along the way. Here's some off the top of my head: Pop. Toot. Level. Nun. Non. Bob. Radar. Mom. Dad. Madam. Civic. Rotor. Can multiple words count? Like: Evil live. God dog. I have heard arguments for and against, but I think they count. |
