Activity of Daily Task from Blogging 101
Well played Blogging University, well played.
For the Daily Task for Day 4, we have to write a post keeping in mind our ideal audience, and to top it all introduce a new-to-me element in the blog.
It’s all good and all but what if your ideal reader happens to be just about anybody who is unfortunate enough- ahem, I mean blessed enough to stumble across your blog page. What happens then? Who do I address the post to then? Huh?
As for the new-to-me element, that part is easy. I have been meaning to write a poem on my blog for quite some while; I think I will do just that.
So, to sum it all up, a new type of post but written in the same way as to address my “ideal” audience.

So, then I guess I will just have to try my hand at funny poetry. I know; I will write a haiku.
I do not write poetry a lot, let alone haiku, so do not expect much. Plus, I am trying to put humor in it, so… I really don’t know.

Damn it! I wrote something serious!
Let me try again.

It’s not working! This one was serious again!
I guess, it’s really tough to write a funny haiku. Given the fact that I am not good with poetry anyway, I guess it would be tougher for me.
I guess this will have to do for now. I will try to write a funny poem (Yes, I have dropped down a bit from funny haiku aim, seeming it cannot be done) and one day I will succeed.
Till then, from one writer to another – WRITE ON!
PS – If you happen to know a funny haiku. I would like to read it.
Well I like you Haiku. I think you have a talent for it. I am ashamed to admit that I had never heard of Haiku until yesterday. I could have used yours in my funeral post! At least you won’t feel obliged to pen an epic now….

We learn something new everyday. No shame in that.
Both Haiku are at your disposal, feel free to use either, if you need to.

Poetry is a tricky thing. I only started doing it two months ago and still have a lot to learn. I started studying rap and it has been insightful.

Just two months. I would never have guessed from the way you write.
Thanks for the tip, I will look into rap for some insight as well.

Means a lot. And I have to say – boy do you have some colossal amount of energy to be able to keep up with everyone’s posts in the Commons.
Plus, you exude so much positive, down to earth vibes in your mannerism.

Thanks dear 🙂 I thought my comment for the very first time didn’t come across positively to you 🙂 Thanks for your kind words. The thing about energy might be true but more than that–I am totally free as I am a retired person. I love meditation and reading. I feel interacting with others and sharing our love and happiness is very meditative and refreshing too. You have given me one of the best compliments I have ever received 🙂 🙂 It’s really kind of you. I would like to read more of your posts as they are very entertaining. You have inherent talent for humor. May I ask what inspired your theme, tag and tagline? I watched V for Vendetta and that was a wonderful film. Please let me know if it’s not too uncomfortable for you 🙂 🙂 Sincerely, Anand 🙂

I sometimes don’t get time to look through all the comments immediately.
I promise you will get to read a lot of my posts although I can’t promise humor in all of them.
As for the inspirations, well it is tough to keep it concise and explain.
I had written a lot of stuff which did not fit in any of my stories. So, I started a blog.
I had always wanted it to be anonymous since people judge a man with a mask less. There was also this factor of not letting the people know who I am, since I wanted the blog to reflect something who I am but not directly associate it with me.
Plus, I am a sociopath – I tend to say things without thinking twice. The blog could help to be an outlet to that also.
