Welcome to the Saturday Mix, 22 October 2022! https://mindlovemiserysmenagerie.wordpress.com/2022/10/22/opposing-forces-saturday-mix-22-october-2022/
This week we are dipping our toes into the pool of OPPOSITES. Our challenge is all about “opposing forces” and the use of antithesis in our writing. You will need to use the two opposing words in your response – which can be poetry or prose.
Our words this week are:
– hard and soft
– lend and borrow
Borrowing the Positive
If I had one good thing to lend
it’d be a colored flower blend
With softish petals and hardish stems
Returning them would be condemned
If you had one good thing to borrow
it’d never be your angst or sorrow
I’ll gladly take those flowers now
For happiness they will endow.

Yes, I find when there are prompts that are specifically so opposite I can usually draw from the more positive side!
