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 three 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/2015/08/10/ronovanwrites-weekly-haiku-poetry-prompt-challenge-57-bust-must/
- Non Ping back Link https://ronovanwrites.wordpress.com/category/haiku-prompt-challenge/
- You may copy the badge/image appearing in this post 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 Words!
Bust & Must
Yes, rhymes this week. I thought we would have some fun…maybe.
My example:
I must weave my words
To create a spell wicked,
I now bust some RHYMES.
The two sentences should read as;
I must weave my words to create a spell wicked.
To create a spell wicked I now bust some rhymes.
Much Love, Success, and Respect
Ronovan

I will be Pinging my Haiku link over on Tuesday, as usual. Like the extra day to tweak. Thought I wouldn’t be able to meet the challenge. Discovered the extensiveness of the word uses of Bust and Must. TY Ronovan, you did it again with another pair of unlikely matches that play well together. jk 🙂

[…] This week Ronovan decided to have a little fun with us and issued rhyming prompt words Bust & Must. However, being my typical rebellious self, I said NO to rhyme time and decided to consult the thesaurus – to no avail. I wasn’t in love with the switch up in words and couldn’t find my poetic niche for the ones I wanted to use. So, here is my attempt for RonovanWrites Weekly Haiku Poetry Prompt Challenge #57. […]
