This week Colleen has challenged us with the words Hobby and Play!  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 Cinquain, my synonyms are Diversion and Dance.


To dance

Like the soft breeze

Puts a spring in your step

Creates diversion from the norm

Let loose!

Snow has fallen, the children cheer

They’ve wanted to go out and play

To them, a most favorite time of year

To us, it’s just another winter’s day

Friday Fantasy ~ The Paths of Yesterday – #poetry

Verdant path to follow home

Free to wander, free to roam

Captivates my earthly senses

Awakens yet, my own defenses

Of never knowing what I’ll find

Around the corner of my mind

The misty haze, of the mountain pass

Turns to reed and binding grass

Cobblestones pave the lush green aisle

And feel myself begin to smile

It is here, where I belong, to play

To forget the paths of yesterday

Tiny bubbles play

On the shore, tickling the sand

Awaiting the tide
