Colleen’s alternative poetry challenge NaNoWriMo is running: giving us a pair of words and for us to then use not them, but synonyms in our poems!
This weeks words to switch are~:
Autumn & Leaves

I used Indian summer, and fall for autumn and farewell and foliage for leaves, within a tanka.
Indian summer
I bid you a fond farewell
For winter is here
The gold foliage of fall
Gives way to cold, bare winterRitu 2017
But I Smile Anyway...

We had such low temperatures too lately. It is warming up a little bit. But that means 3 – 4 degrees… lol! At least it was sunny again today!!
