Crafting Poetry One Syllable at a Time
Kerfe, from Method Two Madness, picked an impressive pair of words this week for our #SynonymsOnly challenge: Transition & Harmony.
I always love your creativity! Here are a few poems I couldn’t pass by:
Jude: Calm in Chaos
Sally Cronin: Advancing Years
Donna Matthews: Petrichor Rising
Sue Vincent: Changes
This week, Linda from Charmed Chaos shared an amazing experience with a Great Horned Owl! Appropriately, she created a Butterfly Cinquain to go along with her experience. It’s all about the wings.
How many times have we heard the adage: write what you know? That’s because it is excellent advice.
When I read poetry, I want to connect with your words. When you share genuine life experiences, the reader sees through your eyes. We get to connect with your feelings. That precious connection—the aha moment, that’s what we all strive for!
Congratulations, Linda, it’s your turn to pick the words for next month’s Synonyms Only challenge. Please Email me your choice at tankatuesdaypoetry@gmail.com before next month’s challenge.
Shift in
The universe
Change flies in on the wings
Of a Great Horned Owl as he peers
Into
My eyes, a rush of emotion
Escapes into the air
As I honor
This peace

Thank you so much dear Colleen And All- I just saw this. As you know, I’ve been a bit occupied today with Bella and what’s going on with her. I will give some thought to the synonyms and send them over to you soon. All- please say a prayer for Dear Bella. She may be ill from eating a poisoned mouse or rat.
