@Jessicalynnt threw out a poetry challenge. She wants us to write a poem using the following five words: snow, eggplant, potent, softly, yesterday
Pearly white snow is a beautiful sight,
I saw it happen just last night.
It fell so softly onto the vast lawn,
I stared at it until well after dawn.
But alas it was time to cook eggplant for dinner,
Everyone loves it, it is a winner.
Now that just leaves just potent to rhyme,
This was fun I had a good time.

It was the only way I could think of to use that word.

@AbbyGreenhill Hold on I just finished mine. I think this is fun and I will post it now. I had a good laugh trying to figure out how to use all these words. I made mine short but it is also sort of funny. I can't wait to see who else will do this today. I think this is a great idea. I love it. So creative and so different.

You did well to get all those words into one poem, I can see why it is called a challenge.

I did one too @AbbyGreenhill . The tricky word was eggplant. I love your poem.
