THE NEXT ONE IS 12 - 12 - 2121 WHEN WE*LL ALL BE IN PARADISE !
PALINDROMES are an interesting pattern of WORDS
WAS IT A RAT I SAW Is a good example
AMORE ROMA An Italian sample !
DO GEESE SEE GOD ? Palindromicly absurd !
Napoleon\'s quip ABLE WAS I ERE I SAW ELBA
But a Palindromic Date is very very rare
900 years ago when none of us were there ?
11 - 11 - 1111 Before the invention ~ of the sweet PEACH MELBA
When GOD created EVE ~ out of ADAM*S RIB
ADAM palindromicly said *MADAM IM ADAM*
She was most impressed by the styling of his GIB
They admired each other and chatted on AD LIB !
Single words like HANAH can be palindromic too
And KAYAK - ROTOR - ANNA to name but a few !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome Love Angela & Brian ๐งก๐๐งก๐๐งก
This Poem is presented as a Rhyming 4 4 4 2 Sonnet ~ OK
Palindromes are a fascinating *Figure of Speech* that can be worked into Poems & Prose. They can occur in any language ~ there are many well known examples in LATIN. SATOR AREPO TENET OPERA ROTAS *The Sower AREPO holds the wheels at work !* It can also be written as a Palindromic Word Square. They also occur in MUSIC when a piece of music is repeated ~ but is reversed. In Hydn*s Palindrome Symphony (47 in G) the third movement ~ Minuet & Trio ~ is a Musical Palindrome ! In Palindromic Poems the word order is reversed and (hopefully) still makes sense ! We*ll post an example in the week. Angela & Brian ๐งก๐๐งก๐๐งก
