I
Slide
Slip away
On virgin snow
Floating in the air
United with childhood
Free to remember days gone
I am in an old-time free fall
Time returning long lost memories
All given while I blend with virgin snow…

Lovely memories, Anita. It feels good to pretend you are a kid again! <3
Helps if you never grew up, Colleen!

Well, my mind is still a teenager!
Then you are truly blessed. <3
Thank you, Colleen… and if the body could just co operate a little too…
Oh, I totally understand. <3 Big hugs!

So beautiful, Anita. I love this.
Thank you, Diana…
How does this work exactly? What does synonyms only mean?
Colleen usually gives us two words on the second Tuesday of the month. We must find synonyms (other meanings for words) of these words to create a Japanese style poem. Link to Colleen’s site for a full explanation!
Japanese style huh? I’ve never written such a way before. Thank you.
Colleen explains it all better than I can!
