Back in our School time ,during our English classes we all have learnt about Palindromes , a word which is derived from the greek word "palin" (again or back) and "dramein" (to run) ".
Palindromes are words or phrases that reads the same in both directions (forward and backward) .Examples : LEVEL ,MADAM, RACECAR etc.Similarly a Palindrome poetry is the one which uses the beauty of Palindrome in Poetry.
There are three different ways to write Palindrome poems,namely
- Word Palindrome :- It can be read backwards, with the same words
- Mirrored Palindrome :-Here the words are reads the same forwards and backwards by letter and it is more difficult to write one
- Line Palindrome :- in which the individual lines of a text make a palindromic sequence ,that is, which reads forwards and backwards, by lines.
This being my Exploring poetry MEME Day and in accordance with NaPoWriMo 's prompt (to write a poem backwards) and A to Z Challenge prompt , I write a Line Palindrome poetry highlighting the letter "J". Welcome to the week 14 of Exploring Poetry Trekking and explore with me :)
