MESMERISING MORNING
A beautiful day moon
Walk away if you dare
In the coyness of night
Light a scented candle
Should i rephrase this honey
Dew clings to morning leaf sway
© gillena cox 2022We are writing poems today using compound words from a given list
with these constraints
You MUST take apart the compound word within your poem. You can do that by a) putting the first half of the compound word at the end of a line and the second half of the compound word immediately at the beginning of the next line OR b) by separating the two halves of the compound word with punctuation. You MUST separate the two root words that make up the compound word.
You may NOT put additional words between the two root words, and you may NOT add a letter to either of the root words.
In other words, the root words must be used exactly as they appear in the compound word!
