The homework for the week is interesting to say the least. Each of the five members present gave one word, and group members are to write something using all of the words. Just to make it more challenging, member Chris L. gave a challenge 'write the shortest piece that uses all of the words'.
The words were picked at random, but as the list grew, there was a little more thought put into it. The words are as follows:
Colleen - river
Bruce - candiru *
Chris - shards
Marilyn - muddle-headed
Carolyn - nurse
So what do you think? Can you put these words into a piece of writing that will amuse/inform/entertain others? Have a try and either post your result here, or bring your words along next Thursday!
Your piece can be in any form of writing, prose, haiku, longer poetic form, whatever you want to try.

That's all folk!
In the beginning, there was a poetry group - Adelaide Plains Poets Inc.. This group grew and prospered, until... one person left, another person left until there was only one person left. That person, though saddened, wasn't destroyed. The group had been set up to further poetry, and further poetry she would! She continued the poetry competition, talked about poetry, attended poetry events, wrote and shared poetry... Then along came a project - Adelaide Plains Chapter & Verse!

I've written a poem using the words, and I'm thinking of reading it tomorrow at the Poets at the Pub event.
