This week, Colleen has given us free reign! It’s Poet’s Choice! We can choose any words we want.   Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!  I used Adhere and Pieces.   🙂


Shiver…

With the cold air

Raindrops cling to the trees

In small fragments of winter’s tears

And freeze

Must find courage from within

When seeking answers

Colleen has given us the words Afraid and Grave for this week’s challenge.   Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!  I used Catacombs and Frightened.   🙂


Buried deep in earth

Lie the catacombs of death

Apprehension dwells

Dare I seek absolution

Or be frightened evermore

The Earth offers no comfort

Many will hunger

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
