I didn't do the alternating lines either. Instead, I wrote a series of haikus on a subject that's a study in contrasts. ;-) OK, I confess. I didn’t do the alternating lines either.

I've been trying it out myself. One other similar exercise from Pat Schneider that I've been playing with is to write two poems, then line them up one on top of the other, and number the lines, 1,2,3 down the page. Then write all the ones together, all the twos, and then all the threes. You can always go back and change waht doesn't work. It reminds me a lot of Patchwork poems. Thanks, Jill!
