Haiku and art

 
 
O My Haiku
 
 
Neologism
use onomatopoeia
This was hard to do!
 
 
I like learning new words, and always try to use them in some way.  Yesterday I learned these two, one meaning the introduction of a new word, and the other meaning the formation of a word for poetic effort, the first one (hopefully) introducing the second in the Haiku.  So, you English teachers and word lovers out there, if I have not used them correctly, enlighten me! 
 
Recently I did a trade with
 Ang
in Canada, and she sent me this fantastic
Henna Goddess
 
She is beautiful to me!
 
 
I completed the toucan paintings I was working on, and added some morning glories to this one.
 

 
It goes in the shop tomorrow so I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for another sale.
 
Have an awesome weekend and don't forget to visit
for more talented Haiku writers.

  10. Hi...LOVE these words...however the most common definition for onomatopoeia is: a word that sounds exactly like the word it describes (such as hum or buzz). You are right because it is poetic. That fact that I know useless info like that is scary....most stuff goes over my head. Judie Love the art Ang sent and your Toucan is beautiful. :-)

  14. I've always loved the rhythm of 'onomonpoeia' and of course, what it means can be poetic as well as fun to write.
    I love the addition of the flowers to your colorful and handsome toucan.
