Our Hostess with thmostest Colleen said :”You can choose the Ekphrastic #PhotoPrompt provided by Trent McDonald, or you can choose the #SynonymsOnly challenge using the words “MOVE & MAKE” provided by David Ellis.
OR… You can do both! It’s up to you#
This week I have decided to write a Etheree using Trent MacDonald’s photo and David Ellis‘s words. I used glide, skimming and sailing for move and create and manufacture for make.

I
Glide through
Life, serene
Swanlike skimming
Not a ripple seen
Sailing through like a dream
Nothing betrays the madness
Created by my feet beneath
Autumn colours also manufacturer
A gentle serenity to fool all.
This is part of Colleen’s Tuesday Tanka Challenge.

Thank you Dale, we used to say this at work when people asked us how we stayed so calm and never flapped or rushed we used to laugh saying we were swans 💜💜💜

This is lovely, Willow 💗💗

Swans always look serene belying their furiously paddling feet under the surface 💜💜
Oct 22, 2020 @ 17:07:22
Ah, yes! That makes for a great metaphor — serenity above, furious paddling below. 🙂❤❤
Oct 22, 2020 @ 17:09:48
That’s what swans do and that’s most of my life too 💜💜

So lovely, Willow. I’ll make some new badges this week for the challenge posts. The new challenges will be on https://wordcraftpoetry.com from now on. The colleenchesebro.com has become my author blog for my books, poetry, and writing. ❤
Oct 22, 2020 @ 21:34:32
Oh! That’s exciting Colleen 💜🕷️🕸️
Oct 22, 2020 @ 21:36:55
It’s fun. I want to do more with our poetry… maybe publish a journal each year or something along that line. We’ll all have a brainstorming session on the blog one day and get more ideas. ❤
Oct 22, 2020 @ 21:40:27
That sounds excellent 💜
Oct 22, 2020 @ 22:35:27
