Here's a challenge for everyone: 1. Get out a dictionary, and find an unusual or common word or phrase that begins with "A". 2. Write a poem based on that word. Let your imagination fly, please! I want to see what everyone can come up with. DO NOT PUT YOURSELF IN A BOX! I want to see unboxed creativity! I would personally like to get to each of the letters - but the best place to start is probably at the beginning, so at the beginning let's begin!  ~El Campeador [This message has been edited by El_Campeador (07-28-2003 12:06 PM).] |

Brezee, post it in Open Poetry, where everybody can read it... “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |

I think the challenges themselves have sprung from Pandora's box... LOL... Ok, Ben, I'm game, as soon as I light upon Serenity's current challenge, I'm back for yours! |

Here's mine, with a common word that I use the meaning of all the time, in one of my favorite forms, too. So, I'm surely not "out of the box". HaHa!! /pip/Forum80/HTML/003802.html |

You all did well, and met the challenge in your own style. I liked each poem very much! “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson [This message has been edited by El_Campeador (07-31-2003 04:09 PM).] |
