You're telling me God wanted man So He sprung a fresh load in his hand? In the other He spit then He rubbed them a bit... And voila! That's how this all began?
Like Abhilasha told, I too do not have knowledge on poetic forms and mainly express through free verse.But, you are a quick learner as is evident from the comments of many senior Members who have authority over English language. What I find is that your writings are very powerful in expression.
Thank you Bharti.. It is all about the love I have received here.. When I came here I was a mess! This forum have given me so many wonderful friends.. Without the love and kindness from all of you, I would have never been here.. All of you encourage me, help me, and praise me when I do right things, and gently point out my mistakes.. It is through this wonderful discourse that I have become whatever I am today.. It is all about the love here.. I love this site and all the members.. You are all like family to me :)

Enjoyed your limerick...... Perhaps the credit can be shared by all three of you! Souren, you can confidently try your hand on any form.......! !
Thank you Valsa ma'am.. I have got my eyes on more senryu, a few haiku, and if I can even a villanelle, and a sonnet...
Syllable counting is highly over rated Kelly try singing it Thank you Souren
Wes is indeed a master. With practice and a good sense of humor, this form can delight both the author and reader. It is good to branch out a bit sometimes beyond your comfort zone, if for nothing else, just to hone writing skills I think the last line was one syllable short
Wes and Kelly: Two of my favorite poets. Saw this title and could not pass it up. Wes is the one who told me I should write more limericks, and I have written many since then.
