Joint effort Haiku

Here is a haiku that Sparkle, Glitter, and I just wrote. Sparkle wrote a few words in her journal to capture the feeling of Glitter's piano practice. I decided to arrange the words into a haiku. Sparkle wasn't into the revision, but Glitter wanted in on the action and made her own suggestions to bring out how she felt doing the practice. Glitter let go of all her anger over the incident (both over the practice itself and her sister writing about it) and she eagerly grabbed paper, pencil, and eraser to participate in the poetry making process.

Here is the result.


Piano practice
Screaming, rushed songs, I hate this!
Such terrible noise!
