Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

love in the time of covid-19

as the world transforms

two minds and two hearts connect

synchronicity

Thanks to Colleen. This week’s challenge required a poem using synonyms only for the word prompts of transition and harmony so I substituted in transforms and synchronicity. Head over to her page for details and some great writing.

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

looking for love & harmony

to spark devotion   

and banish cacophony

the birds joined their calls

and sang a sweet melody

in unity with the trees

Thanks to Colleen’s Tanka Tuesday Synonyms Only Challenge

Our words for today are “love” and “harmony” and my synonyms are “devotion” and “unity.” ‘Twas fun but hard!

Burning in Plain Sight

as we spin a tale   

the beauty of youth turns foul

burning in plain sight

Thanks to Colleen’s Poetry Challenge for the opportunity to shout into the wind about climate change!!

Today’s challenge was to write a poem using synonyms for the two challenge words. I used “beauty” for pretty and and “foul” for ugly.
