This week’s challenge from Colleen Chesebro for her Weekly Tuesday Tanka Challenge is Synonyms Only. That means you have to select synonyms for the two words below. You can’t use the two words… instead, you must choose two synonyms for the words Colleen has given us and use them in your poem.
Here’s your two words:
I have chosen to write a Tanka using Altered and Flourish.

Welcome to the Décima Poetry Challenge. Each week we’ll be attempting a Décima, also known as an Espinela, poem set by Ronovanwrite’s.
Ronovan say “If you don’t know how to write a Décima, click HERE to go to a post on how to write one.Or…Keep reading and find out, with an example included.
He also said “One last thing before we jump in the creativity pool, check out my weekly Haiku Challenge that often has prompts (Destruct and Self this week) that share a central theme, at least in my head, with the Décima Poetry Challenge prompt.”

The Gambler Décima
Always with an eye to the chance
The wheel of fortune spins around
Your spirits high feet don’t touch the ground.
Destruction leads a merry dance
Self denial your chosen stance
Fortunes lessen,they never grow
Your luck revolves like ebb and flow.
Self destruction the gamblers trait
There is no escape from this fate.
Loss of esteem the final blow
Ronovanwrites, weekly Haiku Challenge
Time and Grow
Time stood still for her
Sexual tensions grow slow
Explosions flash out.
Time is not real
Past, present, future dream time
We all slowly grow.
A flower will grow
A vast garden will flourish
Time will colour all

Salty like hot dogs (and tears). Sweet like marmalade (and life).
Rants, humor, sarcasm, and a haiku-like substance? It's hard to know what's going to come out of our minds next.
