Day 209:

Jan 25-back to the Chinese form called Jintishi. The Lushi is one that has 8 lines, or 4 couplets. There are two types, the Wulu, and the Qilu. The following is the Wulu. Remember to rhyme the second and fourth couplet.
Eight lined Jintishi
You are a Lushi.
With five syllables
You are a Wulu.
Four couplets parade
Tones balance the scene
Chinese write these well
See what you can do.
