Back to Writing Challenges

Word Challenge: Write a Dear Diary entry (as entry or poetry form) about Friday the 13th, using all ten of these words: rhapsody, midnight, trepidation, suspended, quest, superstition, time, reflection, absence, infinite:

Dearest Diary, my friendly ear
this entry is one you’ve got to hear
for freed I am, and forever will be
from trepidation and superstition
about Friday the 13th

It happened at midnight
on this fateful date
What began as a quest
To entertain my fright
Turned into a time of
infinite
reflection

for a moment
I lingered, suspended
in the rhapsody
of my discovery
My heart, dear diary
has been living in the
absence of love

So now, I begin
a new journey -
to find the love
that’s meant for me

And it started at midnight
on Friday the 13th
