    Re: Come and Write a FIB

    I'm only able to write in English.  Here's another attempt from me:

    May

    Your 

    Winter

    Holiday

    Be merry and joyful

    Filled with love and great happiness 

     

    Namaste,
    Kim

    Re: Come and Write a FIB

    OK, Goya dear, but even in Spanish, for it to be a TRUE FIB, the lines have to have syllables like this:   1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8

    Now I can take SEATTLE as two syllables, but I can't take VEO as one syllable!!  La amistad is OK at 3 syllables in Spanish, since the two "a's" elide into one syllable.

    Do you know the mathematical progression upon which the FIB is built? Start with 1, 1  -- and from then on each term is the sum of the two preceeding it.  That's why its 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8.  If you kept going, it would be 13, 21, 34, 55 --- and so on.

    I REALLY missed you while you were at the other end of the world!

    Blessings, Aunt Bobby

    Hola Aunt Bobby: Thanks for your comments.

    VEO (I see) is ONE syllable in Spanish, it is a diptongo.

    No, I do not understand yet the mat. progression of the FIBs,

     I will look into it.....I had a great time in the other side, it was SUMMER:

    sunny and beautiful, colors and abundance of vegetables and fruits,  I mean ABUNDANCE!!!! Aunt Bobby.

    Gracias por tus palabras,

    thanks for yout words. From my heart,GOYA

    Bad

    Pepto

    Ad

    Radiation Therapy

    During this time of year?

    Now I am hubby's Hot Mama.

     

    Gentle hugs!

    Gut

    Advert

    Radiate

    Around Christmastime?

    Now I'm hubby's Hot Mama.

    Re: Come and Write a FIB

    Lovely poem, Goya -- but not quite a FIB.  Your syllable count should be 1-1-2-3-5-8

    and yours is 1-1-1-3-5-7

    But it certainly doesn't have to be a FIB to be a beautiful poem!

    Con carino,  Tia Bobby

    Thanks, GOYA and Aunt Bobby! (I like "Tia" - I speak a little Spanish - mostly enough to get me into trouble!)

    Another FIB:

     

    Crisp

    Clean

    Winter

    Invierno

    Dia de Libertad

    Day I will always cherish

    Re: Come and Write a FIB

    Goya -- what a beautiful poem about your hair -- are you then una peliroja?  I was, but ahora tengo pelo blanco!

    Cuidado con la tercera linea del FIB.  Debe tener DOS syllables, and "made" only has one.  Perhaps -- "is made"?

    Much love!  Tia Bobby

    Re: Come and Write a FIB

     

    Soy una peliroja! Or, como se dice "strawberry blonde"?

    Goya, the poem touched me deeply because of my homeland - the mountains, the sun, and my hair color. Although, the mountains are really the Sandias with that lovely sandia color at sunset!

    Keep up the good work! You will get it soon!
