A Cool and Shady Haven

See who can do a poem using five words.
The one who does the poem, chooses the next five words.

Here is an example which I did on an old forum I used to belong to.

TREES
SUN
SEASON
LUGGAGE
BYE

Twas the SEASON of Winter
When I said goodBYE
To my red breasted friends
As I took to the sky.

I was free as a Lark
So no LUGGAGE for me
As I flew over houses
Tall TREES and the sea

Ah this is the life
Yes living is fun
For I am a bird
And I follow the SUN
------------

Here are my five words
Use in any order.

DRINK
WEATHER
BED
GRASS
COLD

Drink to me only with thine eyes
Weather you like me or not,
I’m good in bed
But better on grass
Providing the cold doesn’t freeze my ****

OK enough of this jocularity, lets try to introduce some sanity.

Autumn

Mist
Leaves
Rust

Mo and VM thery were brilliant.
I'm no poet but here's my little effort with VM's words.

Autumn mist is all around.
Frost will soon be on the ground.
Leaves of rust all withered and dead.
I think I'll stay a bit longer in bed.

My words.

Walk
Tree's
Children.
Flowers.
Park.

Carol. That was great.
We can make our poems as short or as long as we like so long as all the five words are used.

Come on then all you poets

by **Victors Mate** » Tue Oct 06, 2009 3:47 pm

Come walk among the trees
Where children pick the flowers
And where young lovers park
to while away the hours.

Husband
Wife
Soap
Boring
evening

One evening a wife said, "Oh dear"
I've gone off you, husband, I fear.
You're utterly boring,
In bed you keep snoring
And you haven't touched soap for a year."

Sunshine

Surf
Shells

Sunshine
Hat
Surf
Shells
Trip

I SURF the net
All day and night
And at last found a cheaper flight

A TRIP to where the sea and land
Have SUNSHINE, SHELLS and golden sand

My HAT and bags are packed
Because
I'm off to sunny Barbados.

I wish :please:

SPONGE
CHOCOLATE
BRITTLE
WRAPPER
YUMMY

A Cool and Shady Haven

For all you poets.
