Q: WHY "MAVERICK SYLLABLE"?
A: Maverick: Non- conformist, rebel, free thinker, undisciplined, unorthodox.
Syllable: A unit of organisation for a sequence of speech sounds.
Such opposite words!! One a free and undisciplined adjective and the other a strict rule for the position of sounds and vowels in a word. So I thought, why not bring them together? And it sounded great too!!
Syllabic writing began several hundred years before the first letters.
Maverick is a 1994 movie and "The Mavericks" is a country music band founded in 1989 in Miami, Florida, U.S.

One old and blue , the other fresh and new!
What happens when such syllables form maverick, rebellious, free, undisciplined words and such words culminate into a sentence which describe emotions, thoughts, needs, wants?
They are called lyrics, rhymes, poems, melodies.........music.
An interesting use of syllables is seen in a HAIKU : A Japanese poetic form.
And there are rules to write a Haiku poem:
1. A Haiku must be exactly 3 lines.
2. First line should contain only 5 syllables.
Second line should contain only 7 syllables.
Third line should contain only 5 syllables.
3. A Haiku should not rhyme.(Source:howmanysyllables.com)
I know, too many rules! But they are real fun, because it needs you to really work your brain, to combine mathematics and grammer. Check out this one:
Each of my posts will be accompanied by such rhymes, lyrics, Haiku's, poems some written by stalwarts and famous personalities and some by me. :D
"The glow of my comfort late into the night,
The faith that I give when you walk without sight.
The depth that's beyond getting just what you ask
From an infinite God who makes what you have last.
The faith that I give when you walk without sight.
The depth that's beyond getting just what you ask
From an infinite God who makes what you have last.
"You'd never know, should your pain quickly flee,
What it means that My grace is sufficient for thee.
Yes, your dearest dreams overnight would come true,
But, oh, the loss, if you missed what I'm doing in you.
What it means that My grace is sufficient for thee.
Yes, your dearest dreams overnight would come true,
But, oh, the loss, if you missed what I'm doing in you.
"So, be silent, my child, and in time you will see
That the greatest of gifts is to truly know me.
And though oft My answers seem terribly late,
My most precious answer of all is still . . . Wait."
