There I was, thinking Colleen’s Synonym challenge would be done after her November Nano absence… but guess what… She’s only gone and decided that she’s keeping it up! So we will have two words now, that we can’t use, as we need to find synonyms instead! Thanks, Colleen!!
This week she’s given us :
Stark & Trap
So here’s a haiku

This week she left us with:
Plenty & Meander
I found this pretty tough, to be honest! Really wanted to use the actual words!!!
But here’s a haiku ( used artistic license to add a syllable to the last line (naughty me!)

So that Colleen went and left us for a month to chase her NaNo dreams, but she didn’t leave us without… oh no, she left us a challenge and a half.
A list of prompt word pairs that she wants in poetic form, but as SYNONYMS, not the actual words!
So, this week, we have
Thanks & Family
