Freestyle (SatWE August 25, 2012) A Janaku (and repost for Len)

(Dummy me, this was a post for SatWe and I didn't post it to Gather Writing Essential...;p)

The Tree

It

Stood, ramose

By the river;

Sun

Beating down,

Wind whipping by.

Yet,

The wind

No marplot was,

For

The tree's

Roots were firmly

Planted,

Gripping the

Firm, unmovable rock

A

Great georgic

Feat? No. It

Was

Just being

The Creator's Creation.

Thank you, Terry, for introducing me to a new form of poetry.

Hopefully I used the words correctly. If I didn't, well, at least Len is not going to grade me on my use of English. ;p

________________________________________________

This Week’s Challenge:

Using prose or poetry, write anything you want (fiction, nonfiction, or essay) but include the words: ramose, georgic, and marplot.

Here are three words selected at random from e-mails I received in the past couple weeks.

ramose \RAY-mohss\ adjective
: consisting of or having branches

georgic \JOR-jik\ adjective
: of or relating to agriculture

marplot \MAHR-plaht\ noun
: one who frustrates or ruins a plan or undertaking by meddling

Watch Out For:

The only thing is to make sure you use the three words (ramose, georgic, and marplot) correctly in your work.

The key is correctly. Keep in mind that one of the words is a noun and the other two are adjectives.
