on the lake surface of people on a boat (here)
Synonyms from the thesaurus:
paint - acrylic color dye
fan - blade propeller
release - freedom discharge freeing
light - bright luminous shiny aglow
clothes - attire garb regalia dress outfit
Note: The five challenge words are not
to be used in a poem but their synonyms
dabbling in acrylic can be
most rewarding
it is akin to sliding the colors
onto a static surface from
blades of the propeller
it allows a freedom to discharge
images in the mind onto canvas
freeing the clutter in the imagination
bright and shiny colors are aglow on
the water's surface making one appearing to be
garbed in an attire dressed to kill
Jr Vincente's at A to Z Challenge - S for shiny
Kerry's at Real Toad's - antic disposition
Can just let it flow and free the mind indeed.
