Collaboratively Write a Great Renga Poem

Come join us in a Modern Day Collaborative Poetry Workshop; We will collaboratively write a Japanese poem called "Renga http://www.healinglovenotes.com/renga-poetry.html"
It can be about anything.

Whoever writes the first stanza determines the theme;
The first person will write 3 lines of poetry;
The second person will add two lines to it to complement it;
Next, the 3rd person write another 3 lines of poetry;
Again the 4th person will add 2 lines to complement it and so forth.

Example;
She ate a red apple
It was so tasty
A worm popped out;

Like the wind she ran
A screeching sound bellowed;

Tears ran down her face
She tripped over a log
She fell head first into the lake;

She saw an alligator approached
Before its mouth opened, she was on land.
