The Muse Amuses
By Teresa Dean Smeigh

Happily I write.
The pen scribbles , the muse thinks,
Provides what I need.

Rules:

The rules are simple.

• Take the two words and write a Haiku. I use Haiku in English as my style, which is 5 syllables for the first line, 7 for the second, and 5 for the third, but you can use what you like. For syllable help visit HowManySyllables.com.

• The two words can be used as you like. Words have different definitions and you can use the definitions you like. You can even use a synonym word as long as it does not change the meaning. Go to Thesaurus.com for Synonym help.

• Copy the link of your finished haiku URL  in a comment so we can all go and visit your site to see what you have done. I will comment on your site. You can do a ping back. What’s a ping back? Put a link back to this prompt page, if you like within your post, as long as it does not take away from your haiku. This is simply a prompt and challenge to encourage people to try Haiku and give some a prompt and a place to share in comments so we can find each other. A link in your post does give others a chance to find us and join in. Use one of the two below if you like.
• Ping back Link https://ronovanwrites.wordpress.com/2015/10/26/ronovanwrites-weekly-haiku-poetry-prompt-challenge-68-muse-pen/
• Non Ping back Link https://ronovanwrites.wordpress.com/category/haiku-prompt-challenge/
• You may copy one of the badges/images appearing in this post below or above and place it on your site if you wish, most normally use it within their post. I am not saying you need to, but if you would like to do so then go ahead. It is simply my way of saying thank you for participating. I sometimes make custom images for the week, if time and health permits.
• The Challenge is currently posted at 8 AM New York City time on Mondays to give people a better chance than the old 9 AM time.
• Deadline is Noon New York City time on the Sunday following the Challenge Post release.

The Challenge Words!
