Colleen’s back finally with her first Synonym challenge in nearly 2 months! Of course, just providing a couple of words would be far too simple, so we have two words, yes, but we can’t use them! Only synonyms allowed!
At
The start
Of the year
All I wanted
Was peace and quiet
They listened and left me
At first, I revelled in it
Then the loneliness slowly came
The silence ate away at my mind
I begged them to come back, but no one came

Colleen’s Weekly Poetry challenge!It’s Tuesday, and that means Colleen’s Tanka Challenge! Of course, just providing a couple of words would be far too simple, so we have two words, yes, but we can’t use them! Only synonyms allowed!
I lie… it’s the beginning of the month so we have this as our prompt…
It’s the first of the month! Happy April! Choose your own words!
So, I have chosen spring and world.
Was feeling artistic so I decided to paint a picture to go with my Tanka, which makes it a bit of a Haiga too!
Video proof that I painted… taken by Lil Princess!
And the Haiga/Tanka
Spring has sprung
Flowers open their petals
And search for the sun
Blush pink blossons grace the trees
The world is waking once more

Childhood past-times can
Evolve into fruitful jobs
Work can be fun too

Colleen’s Poetry Challenge:
A beautiful dawn
I can hear the bird's chorus
The sun is shining
A perfect start to the day
Bringing a bounce to my step

Wherever you go
I will be your own shadow
I'll never leave you
Be my escort to the light
Show me how to live just right
