cawing voices
upon the treetops
announcing mystery and magic
fascinating creatures
A tiny poem for Sue’s challenge this week.

Tanka – going ahead
I’m going ahead
everyone has a purpose
to be a leader
or to be a follower
happiness is what matters
Colleen’s words this week are destination and guide.
writephoto – window
behind those windows
peace and tranquility
just what i need
right now and forever
a room of solitude
but to reach it
the mind needs to rip apart
all thorns and fences
mindfulness
focus on the roses
Senryu: The price
You wish I was yours
Add money to the balance
I’ll alter my view
The words for this week are Ambition and Change, but we need to use synonyms.
I’m really having fun playing with styles of poetry, after several posts with Cinquain I decided to try a Senryu for this week.
Senryu in English 5/7/5 syllable structure. A Senryu is written about love, a personal event, and have IRONY present. Click the link to learn the meaning of irony.
writephoto – Blue
Lost in blue waters
I look for you
the lightness of being
the smile
the hair in disarray
I only find
emptiness and confusion
My hope is spring will be here soon
and the winter blues will fade away
Cinquain: Master
Knowledge
Smart, confident
Writing, reading, speaking
Reborn outside the ignorance
Command
Colleen’s challenge this week is ‘experience and new‘, we need to use synonyms for these words.
I think I’m addicted to the Cinquain form of poetry! 🙂
writephoto – thaw
There is time for everything,
The snow is thick now
The earth is dark
But
Tomorrow the sun will rise
A new day
New possibilities
The snow will thaw
So your hardened heart
You will see everything
Bright and light
Cinquain: Freshness
The words for Colleen’s challenge this week are Cover and precipitation, but we need to use synonyms. Here is my take!
drizzle
freshness, earthly
splashing, laughing, running
make me feel freely protected
Flurry
writephoto :: mists
Lost in the mists of time
youth and passion
now I only have despair
waiting for a magic to happen
with each sunrise
the dream revives
bringing me love and enchantment
Tanka: bells and past
irritating chimes
keeping me awake at night
thoughts from long ago
earplugs will not resolve it
noise is making me crazy
