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.
