Fire

Igniting sky

Sparks electricity

A turmoil between cloud and light

Scorching

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

Vengeance – #poetry – #JanuaryWriting

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

Pennies from Heaven – #NovemberWriting #poetry

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
