Scribing Legends (Colleen’s Weekly #Poetry Challenge – #Tanka)

Everyday musings

Turn themselves to works of art

Scribbled on the page

Still I chase that fantasy

To craft the perfect story!

My response to Colleen Chesebro‘s Weekly Poetry Challenge #68: Myth & Write. The twist is to only use synonyms for the prompt words! For this challenge, I chose to write a tanka about creativity. I hope you enjoy the poem! Thanks for the prompt, Colleen!

      Wonderful! Keep on chasing that dream! I’m certain the “perfect story” is a myth, but it’s still worth trying to write! Thanks for the prompt, Colleen! 🙂

    It’s in there somewhere. Sooner or later it will spill out. Nice tanka.

      Thanks! I hope so; I’m a perfectionist and I’m getting tired of waiting! Thanks for reading! 🙂
