Colleen is back with her poetry challenge. This week, the words are Influence & Perception. Remember, synonyms are a must! Check out Colleen’s blog to find which forms of poetry are acceptable for this challenge. Have fun!

Written as a Tanka, my synonyms are Impress and Enlightenment.

My dreams to impress

Became lackluster with age.

Now long forgotten,

Are the mad days of dazzling.

Enlightenment won over.

Yay!! Colleen is back with her poetry challenge. Boy, have I missed her! This week, the words are Beginning & Consume. Remember, synonyms are a must! Check out Colleen’s blog to find which forms of poetry are acceptable for this challenge. Have fun!

Written as a Shadorma, my synonyms are Boundaries and Depleted.

Depleted.

Once pure clean air, now,

Billowing

Noxious clouds.

Man oversteps boundaries

Wasted, climates cease.

In the street

Dancing with rhythm

Twas her chance

For freedom

Letting each movement carry

Escaping farther

In a quandary

Is not where I want to be

Alas, I am there

Authors Note: I usually take time off during the summer months, and these particular posts (the 10PM slot), drew the short straw. But they’ll return in September, after Labor Day. Hopefully, I’ll be able to grab a prompt here and there, as I do enjoy the words given and I appreciate the time each blogger puts into choosing the words. 🙂
