Do not fear the storm
When life throws daggers at you
Show it you are fierce

Colleen’s challenge for us this week are the words Cold and Storm. Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry!
Written as a Nonet, my synonyms are Raw and Disturbance.
Such disturbance, I have never felt
Penetrating, my inner thoughts
Festering, this wound, bleeding
Revealing, my self-doubt
Seizing, the moment
Until at last
Defeated
I am
Raw

Under full moon’s light, as the thunder crashed
A deserted ship, against murderous waves, thrashed
There was no one aboard, they had perished that night
As the boat, bobbed and swayed, such a terrible sight
Once a crew of twenty, one by one, fell to the sea
Washed away with the tides which claimed victory
No bodies were found, on those waters, enraged
When guided by the full moon, cannot be assuaged
That was her vengeance, this storm, she delivered
Left behind, nothing more, than a craft, fully slivered

Storm clouds of grey, pitch black, emerge
Then open up, with a thunderous surge
Icy cold droplets, against my skin
Looking up to the sky, I take it all in
Trying to count them, but they’re much too fast
These pennies from Heaven, gather, amass
Into puddles for jumping, no way I’ll abstain
Anyone watching, might think me insane
Dancing about, in the middle of the street
Clothes soaking wet, from my head to my feet
Ah, but who cares, just let the rains pour
I’ll simply stay here, waiting for more

Storm
Thunder
In my mind
Creates visions
Ones that do linger
Forcing me to escape
Into my own awareness
A place, profound, as is subtle
Yet, to truly understand your fate
One must make sense of their very own soul
This is my first attempt at an etheree poem. Info on how to write one can be found HERE. Many thanks to Helene Vaillant of Willow Poetry for creating in this form and to Colleen Chesebro for researching and adding this to her weekly poetry challenge.
