Week # 48 (6/24)


Poetry Form:
PANTUN

Pantun is a form of poetry that originated in Malaysia and Indonesia.
Pantun poems typically consist of four lines, with each line having eight to 12 syllables.
The first two lines typically establish a theme, while the second two lines provide a twist or unexpected conclusion.

To write a Pantun poem, start by choosing a theme or idea that you want to explore.
Then, use the first two lines to establish the theme, using sensory language to create vivid imagery.
Finally, use the last two lines to provide a twist or unexpected conclusion that ties the poem together.

Example:

Singapore is a new country,
Tuan Raffles has become its lord,
Chinese jasmine, purple magnolia,
A burgeon of flower in the dragon’s mouth.

poem by Munshi Abdullah
