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!
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.

ReplyDeleteSorry I messed up on that other comment. What I wanted to say was I learned two new words today thanks to you. And your Toucan painting is beautiful! You won't have any problem selling it.
ReplyDeleteI love the paintings, Judie.
ReplyDeleteHi Judie. I always like learning new words too. Problem is, I always forget them after I thought I learned them. tee hee. Love your Toucan painting is wonderful. You are a very good artist. Have a wonderful weekend Judie.
ReplyDeleteThanks for teaching us two new words today! Love the toucan with the morning glories!
ReplyDeleteHi...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. :-)
ReplyDeleteWell I have to say your haiku is a bit over my head :) BUT love love the toucan
ReplyDeleteThe harder some things are to do, the more worth doing they are!
ReplyDeleteAh, I remember my high school english class, very clever!
ReplyDeleteI've always loved the rhythm of 'onomonpoeia' and of course, what it means can be poetic as well as fun to write.
ReplyDeleteI love the addition of the flowers to your colorful and handsome toucan.
It may have been hard, but it was worth the effort, wasn't it?
ReplyDeleteLove our toucan - not an English teacher but I love the haiku, too : )
