Every night while dreaming, I weave breathtaking stories,
All the novel plots, how I ardently try to freeze,
But once I wake up, my memory seems dismal,
So in dreamland, I decide to publish my novel.

Poetry Style : Nashers
Named after Ogden Nash, Nashers are couplets (of any length) that feature comical rhymes, including wrenched rhymes (which occur when a word is deliberately mispronounced or its natural accent is shifted to force a rhyme, like anther for answer).
Guidelines (for this event):
- One-stanza of 2 couplets (meaning 4 lines)
- Rhyme scheme: rhyming
- Topic: writer’s choice
- The paramount of this form is humor. So, the primary goal is to make the reader smile or laugh.
