LOOSE & TIGHT (synonyms only)
an Abhanga
The shoes are just too big
The dress much too clingy
Her hair straight and stringy
Sucks to be her

We were faced with using SQUARE and CIRCLE, so I chose TROGLODYTE and WHIRL.
The troglodyte thought
I’ll give it a whirl, why not
Learn to disco dance

Trees
Might be
Gentle giants
We learn to love
Grounded energy
Connecting earth and sky
Home to creatures great and small
Some succumb to Mother Nature
Others stand proud for hundreds of years
Teaching us to be strong no matter what

Colleen Chesebro challenged us with using synonyms only for the words COMFORT and WORN. I chose to use FAMILIAR and FADES. Join us in the fun!
As I slip into
The familiar excuses
Their strength fades away
I am encouraged to change
To create a better life

This week, I chose to use the words, JOLLY, and SPRING! Why? Because spring is a jolly time of year for me. I watch the land waken and all of nature brightens up in celebration! Follow Colleen Chesebro for all the fun her blog has to offer, including Tanka Tuesdays
Jolly fat robins
Worms are staying underground
Barren trees will bud
Temperatures on the rise
Spring is more than on its way
