Last week as I was shelving books in my classroom library, I noticed the syllable count of many titles. So many titles had five syllables which was perfect for a book spine haiku. I have played around with book spine poetry, and it is not an easy poem to "write." So what made me think book spine haiku would be any easier? I began pulling titles and rearranging. It actually became quite fun!
This one is my favorite because I think the only good thing about the months of December, January, and February is Christmas.

What Steve said on Twitter -- FUN! And the syllable count even works!!
ReplyDeleteOh come on now. There has to be something more than Christmas. Valentine's Day is nice and it means we are usually over the coldest days. Smile, today starts one more minute of light everyday. You are that much closer to summer.
