I thought of this when me and my friends were doing speed all night, the five of us began writing a poem where each one takes turns writing a line, everyone pays attention to the previous lines so that the meaning and format smoothly develop and mutate. We did it in 4 line verse where every other line rhyme, but it can be done in free verse also, will probably be more fun. Please post your comments or post your suggestion. I just think it would be cool to have some community activities going in Words, what do you think?

definitely! my big brother and I used to do that - or just write a poem off the top of our heads - no thinking! funny as!!!

But yep - I think it is wonderfu lthat we can post poems and such - but it would be lovely to get everyone together on something. I approve! haha
 
i remember doing stuff like that when i was a kid...

you write a story or poem....
but you ONLY are allowed to see the last line so it flows smoothly but you cant see the rest.....makes for some funny stuff
 
I will!!!!
to keep it simple perhaps we should stick to simple rhyming cuplets (2 lines that rhyme!)

Perhaps if we write two lines each...... one line that rhymes with the last persons line....and then a fresh line for the next person to rhyme with?

Does that make sense???

Of course to make that work the first person would only have to write one line...so here goes:

I once knew a little place not far from here...

So the next person copy and past this line and add 2 lines....the first one rhyming and the second not...... lets go!!!!
 
(after reading it, it kinda sucks, just go with it! :))



I once knew a little place not far from here...
it's my favorite spot to sit, and have a beer...
Whenever I felt lonely, I'd go to this place...
 
Whenever I felt lonely, I'd go to this place...
And watch from my perch the vastness of space.
I felt welcomed there, mother nature would greet me...
 
sorry, i'll come up with a better one next time around ;)

I felt welcomed there, mother nature would greet me
I'd look up to the sky and it would seem quite simply
