Look who’s back!
Yes at last our Fairy Queen of the synonyms is back. Safely ensconced in Arizona Colleen is ready to set us our Weekly Tuesday Tanka Challenge you can join in here.. It doesn’t have to be a Tanka though as long as it is a poem governed by syllables.
Today’s words to use synonymously are Beginning & Consume.
I have chosen to do a Nonet, one of my favourite forms of poetry.
In the beginning.
When it all started there were just two
All sparkly, wonderful and new.
They had eyes for eachother
Such joys to discover
Snake then wriggled in
Try this apple
It’s good, she
Ate, too
Late.

Too late.
And so it came to pass
Eve was the one got the brains
her punishment
to be the slave of the
ditherer
the unimaginative
yes man
content in his ignorance.

Absolutely love this can I put it up with mine as separate combined post. I shall credit your verse to you 💜
Jun 11, 2019 @ 12:40:31
Course you can! I’d be flattered 🙂
Jun 11, 2019 @ 13:23:06
Okay thanks 💜💜

All done💜
Jun 11, 2019 @ 21:02:05
LOL! I love your response, Jane. ❤
Jun 11, 2019 @ 21:07:42
It’s brilliant isn’t it, did you see I made them into a single poem with Jane’s response 💜😲💜
Jun 11, 2019 @ 21:09:03
No… I’ll look for it. It’s magnificent! 😀
Jun 12, 2019 @ 06:31:51
I hate that story 🙂
Jun 12, 2019 @ 06:52:23
I am not over keen on it either but your words put it into a new perspective 😃

The best bit is Eve (and all women after her) being condemned to do nothing in life but breed children, and as an added punishment to do it in excruciating pain. That is not my idea of a kind, all-forgiving, all-loving father. But then, that only applies to his sons, I imagine. God doesn’t have much truck with women.
Jun 12, 2019 @ 12:13:23
Yes indeed you certainly have a point there. For an all loving , all forgiving God he is a tad scary 💜
Jun 12, 2019 @ 14:11:11
I do my best to ignore him. He ignores me anyway so…
Jun 12, 2019 @ 14:13:25
Lol 🌬️ he is watching you from a distinct 🌹🌹🌹🌹

Maybe I’ll have a deathbed repentance. As a Catholic I just need to get hold of a priest and Bob’s your uncle 🙂
Jun 12, 2019 @ 15:51:20
And Bridie and Aylish are your aunts. 🌹🌹🌹
Jun 12, 2019 @ 17:39:27
And Sheila and Molly 🙂
Jun 12, 2019 @ 17:41:26
Lol 💜🤭
Jun 12, 2019 @ 15:42:10
🤣 I know, but you were succinct in your description! ♥️
Jun 12, 2019 @ 13:57:37

It should be consigned to the scrap heap of useless wrong-headed rubbish.
Jun 12, 2019 @ 21:17:09
LOL! 😀
Jun 11, 2019 @ 17:25:22
Good job sis!
Jun 11, 2019 @ 17:49:08
That might have been the first time when it was said: Sh** happens 💁♀️
Jun 11, 2019 @ 17:51:23
Yes indeed, darn it wish I had thought of that 💜
Jun 11, 2019 @ 18:01:22
😄 We’d make a good team 😄
Jun 11, 2019 @ 18:17:24
Yes indeed we would 💜

Oh, this was quite clever, Willow! You did fabulously and Jane’s response is hysterical! ❤

Yes indeed excellent 💜

It’s fun isn’t it 💜
Jun 15, 2019 @ 19:16:01
Lovely Nonet, Willow! I love the sculpture too. The story of Adam and Eve is a brilliant take on the challenge.
Jun 15, 2019 @ 19:16:43
Thank you Vashti💜
Jun 17, 2019 @ 13:04:42
