Colleen’s challenge for us this week are the words Begin and Fresh.  Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!

Written as a Reverse Nonet, my synonyms are Create and Anew.


With
My words
I create
Feelings anew
Parts of my own soul
Entirely exposed
To unknown human beings
Who somehow find my poetry
Mirrored images of their own lives

My
Light glows
In the night
Electric dreams
Creating the spark
Igniting the spirit
Within this human being
Causing visions, vivid, to shine
And dance about in spectral fashion

Colleen was kind enough to give us the words for this weeks challenge, even though she started her Yule break!  Thank you, Colleen ❤  The words this week are Try and Life.  Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!

Written as a Nonet, my synonyms are Essence and Endeavor.


My essence is truly energy
An endeavor repeatedly
Fought for, an attempt to shine
In the darkest of times
Through my poetry
When only thoughts
Of the night
Consume
Me
