I was challenged to create a poem based on a "Word Toolbox." The idea is that you pull books off your shelf, flip to random pages then write down words or phrases that stand out to you.
I grabbed an older book of classic stories and, after researching some uncommon words for definitions, wrote the poem below.
Ancient Mistress
"My little camp sits betwixt an oaken thicket and moonlit lagoon.
Tonight I carefully select a perfect cudgel then head for a walk around the water's frayed shores.
I did not use all the words so that my short visual poem wasn't jumbled.
