Light
Across
Barren lands
Empty branches
Reaching for the sky
Morning rises to meet
Its white puffy clouds, afloat
Softening the signs of sadness
Tethered here on this desolate earth
For which, I fear, there is no other choice

A vision appears in the dark of night
Rather gnome like or perhaps ogre
Simply floating about, blocking
What lies ahead of me, still
I ignore, best I can
This apparition
It plays games
Abhorrent
Loathsome
Thing
It
Tries me
Go away
You quite bore me
And I know better
I remain here, watching
It dissipates in the air
Swirling about, creative mist
A cloud of smoke no longer inhaled
But exhaled, letting it escape my soul

Colleen has given us the words Haunt and Spell for this week’s challenge. Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry! I used Spirit and Incantation. 🙂
A
Spirit
Dwells here
Ever present
Amongst the living
Bewitching in its charm
It catches one off their guard
And terrifies the weakest soul
With an incantation, it takes you
Now you only exist to plague this Earth

For this week’s challenge, Colleen has chosen Ghost and Hollow as the prompts. But there’s a catch!! #SynonymsOnly! Rules can be found at the link below! Have fun!
The
Spirits
Are restless
Tonight, they howl
With the wind, blowing
Like a banshee, screaming
Into space, they float away
Bringing them closer to nothing
They disappear in the emptiness
Spectral beings, ever lost, in the void

Ah
Autumn
Colors change
Matching my mood
I become her slave
Red, orange, and yellow
Green fades into the distance
Easily, my soul is now hers
She bleeds me until she is replete
Ever mysteriously, I comply
