Thanks to MindLoveMisery’s Menagerie for the Saturday Mix challenge. I chose the three words: collector, approach, and anchor for the Abecedary challenge. The NaPoWriMo prompt is “to write a poem that incorporates neologisms or a made-up word! Your neologisms could be portmanteaus (basically, a word made from combining two existing words, like “motel” coming from “motor” and “hotel”) or they could be words invented entirely for their sound. Probably the most famous example of a poem incorporating neologisms is Lewis Carroll’s Jabberwocky, but neologisms don’t have to be funny or used in the service of humor.” For A to Z Challenge the letter P will be used for the GoodRead’s quote.

What do you memory-keep, in hiding?
Is it shot glasses or dream-chains?
What do you memory-keep in hiding?
Mind-shells, collected in the ocean claimed?
Is it silver spoons, photographs?
Is it shot glasses or dream-chains?
Do you keep ticket stubs, find-maps?
Do you keep a journal or postcards?
Is it silver spoons or photographs?
Do you approach life, to be a live-hard?
What objects hold your memories dear?
Do you keep a journal or postcards?
Do you buy rings, anchoring thoughts clear?
Or do you have a photographic mind?
What objects hold your memories dear?
Do you think of those who’ve been kindlings?
What do you memory-keep in hiding?
Or do you have a photographic mind?
What do you memory-keep in hiding?
