Miz Q's: Pom-poms: A Hunting We Will Go...


Miz Q: Shake your Pom-poms

Give me a word for blue: azure / crimson
Give me a word for a light: inspiration / deflation
Give me a word for a pet: four paws / snake
Give me a word for an emotion: angst / euphoria
Give me a word for an unpleasant smell: cesspool / perfume
Give me a word for deity: Artemis / Apollo
Give me a word for a body part: funny bone / knocked noggin
- 7 -  Write 7 lines.
–OR– If you’re feeling energetic
For each of those, choose an opposite (lots of ways for things to be opposite. use whatever works for you). That gives you 14 words. Write a poem of 12-20 lines.


A Hunting We Will Go...

When Artemis and Apollo were children
They did not know they were Gods
They played from the dawn of azure skies
To the fall of crimson hued sunsets
The frivolous actions of the two siblings,
Depending on their mood of inspiration or deflation
Cause much angst and euphoria for human toys -
Funny bones rattled and knocked noggins abounded
When women were turned to cats with four paws
Daintily stepping in rose scented perfume or men were
Left limbless as slithering snakes left to slide deep
Into cesspools for being the cads that they were...
