Her given name was Pretty Kate
She’d be dressed to the nines by eight
She’d fashion a grin
To all who walked in
She was prim
On a date…

Here are the two first lines. This is challenging! If I’m not getting the clogyrnach vibe. Thank you and I hope you’re having a happy Saturday.

That’s cute. That’s a great start and we can collaborate. Do you want me to write a couple of lines and send them back to you in here in this note?

I’ll give it my best shot. This will be fun but challenging. I love words but don’t write a lot of poetry. When it’s finished I’ll show it to you even if it is terrible!

Yeah, the last few stanzas are tough because there’s only three syllables in them.

Oh now that’s so cool! I love the vowel requirements, they’re like rhythms. Yeah! Very cool! I want to try it. (long ago I learned about haiku, and I gave it a shot. This clogyrnach will be a lot more challenging!

Yeah, it’s sort of like the haiku and the limerick had a love child together and the sonnet is like their uncle lol 😝 it’s the weirdest iambic pentameter I’ve ever seen.

I like that word; it’s funny. Clogyrnach is a new word for me. Before I look it up, I think it might be an Irish word🙃!
