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.
