[This week Totally Optional Prompts encouraged us to rewrite. I looked for something I could stand to look at again and my heart wasn't in it.
Last spring I took a challenge to try my hand at the clerihew. I posted a couple then and decided that for my "rewrite" I would write another. It's late, but I did come up with one. I should try more of these when I'm awake.]

seen coast to coast,
competed with sleep and yawns (ours)
so will soon be on earlier by hours.

First time I see this form and I like it! I think I'll have my poetry-writing students try these!
Well done!
Hi, Linda.
Search the Miss Rumphius blog I link to for "clerihew" and see the other references she gives - at lest one is tied to poetry for kids.
