Here comes the mighty, strapping, hardy Thesaurus!
Listen to it bellowing, clamoring, roaring in dissonant chorus,
Along with fellow friends: Dictionarasurus and Rhymesaurus
Lifting up, raising up, their ringing, pealing, thundering voices in sonorous,
Blabbering, jabbering chants that thrill, amaze, and restore us,
Renewing, reinstating, replacing words with tones both dense and porous.
Written for dVerse.

All the thoughts of blue
Dance in the light of the waves
Sapphires rolling and splashing
Into periwinkles and blueberries
Bursting open with ocean sprays
Of alabaster foam
And falling into aquamarine pools
Rising and falling with the tide
Stretching out azure fingers
To catch the cornflower dripping sky
Written for dVerse.

Snow queen sits upon her throne
Holding winter in her hands
Dreaming of frost and hailstones
She pours diamonds on the land
Seeds of crystal fluttering down
Like regal swan feathers
Adorning the earth in a wedding gown
She smiles at such fair weather
