Poetry Day 2 - Synonym Poetry

For today, we were supposed to choose any word we want, then write that word in capital letters on the first line. In a thesaurus, look up three to five synonyms for the word. Write the synonyms on the second line, then on the third line write a descriptive phrase about the word. Line two and line three should rhyme . . .

It was such a beautiful day today! Spring is in the air, everything is starting to become green, there are more people out and there is a little hop in everyone's step. People are wearing shorts again and the pale, bare legs are starting to soak in the warming sun and get a little color . . .

Spring is happy! Spring is hopeful! Spring makes the heart look at the future with joy and put aside for a while the clouds of gloom . . .

In that spirit, here are my poems for today:

JOYFUL
Thrilled, delighted, gleeful, jubilant, bliss
My feeling at your glance, touch and kiss . . .

LIGHT
Brilliance, radiance, luster, incandescence
My face shines whenever I reside in your presence . . .

ADMIRE
Respect, appreciate, applaud, esteem, adore
You continually inspire me to accomplish more . . .

HOPE
Longing, wishing, craving, yearning
Instilling the desire to always continue learning . . .

FUTURE
Anticipations, expectations, prospects, outlook
Our time together is a delectably unwritten book.
