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 :
So here’s a haiku

Outsmarting nature
Beauty still blooms in the cold
Barren winter scapes

And a Senryu

Lose your vacant look
In order to snare a man
Be your fiery self

Forests strewn with fallen leaves
Cornucopia of joy

And a Senryu

A plethora of
Choice will sometimes encourage
Those pure hearts to stray

Short skirts grazing thighs
Skimming sexily over
Undulating hips

Evenings short and dark
Creating a sultry mood
Perfect for love.

Colleen is away now for FIVE weeks, completing #NaNoWriMo… but she’s left her challenges for those weeks… here!
The twist is you have to use her words but as synonyms, not the actual words!
So this week, we have
Fright & Night

On All Hallows Eve
All the spooky ghouls come out
Ready to have fun
Strange things begin to happen
Once darkness covers the land

As the nights draw in
Bare branches wave spookily
Atmospheric fear
