Lol, no! That nonsense poem was inspired by the difficult words.
Challenge: entourage, frenetic, entranced, billows, adroitly, ontological
the next big thing
they were the next big
thing it was said, they and
their entourage adroitly
navigating an entranced
yet frenetic crowd ever
billowing toward them
as they made their way
to limousines waiting like
purring black panthers...
'tis simply ontological -
a recapitulation of youth

The sleepless feather
She travels through the universe
sleepless,
untiring,
so keen to illuminate
silence.

Thanks for praise and correction. Done.
Challenge: zenith, nebula, horizon, Andromeda, movement, whirling
Strottner-Drechsler-Sainty Object 1...
Somewhere, there!, high above the
horizon at zenith lies an immense
teal arc - A massive nebulosity
found shadowing the galaxy of
Andromeda - A whisper of things
to come or a phantom of the past?
Such are the conjectures of alien
minds whirling through the Milky
Way devoted to celestial movements

At the Spur of the Momen
I lost a coin
Just a simple small coin
But it had a symbolic value.
It had been given
By someone special
At a special occasion
I looked for it
In the portmanteau
In the wardrobe
In the office.
I became frantic
I divulged my loss
Meeting with little sympathy
After all the world was having
Apocalyptic losses
And I was demanding a coin.
At last l found it
Resting placidly
In the shadow of a tree.

Enjoyed. I can relate, I have a good luck coin with an angel on it and it sometimes wanders :)

transcendental forest bathing
fluid within the framework of desired simplicities
I indulged in a day without personal electronics -
forgoing ringtones and eye candy - staying within
the geographics of my mind whilst conjuring a
tapestry of gentle windchimes in meditation -
transporting in time and space to a simpler place
where the færie folk dwell in the wood, escaping
the trappings and trumperies of man, refreshing
myself with the morning's collection of dew from
a buttercup offered by wooly bears I've sought
to receive counsel from - encircled by pink lady's
slippers with whom I will also give deference to

Dragonfly
Riding a sunbeam across the river,
dancing in the morning mist
that wets the cobblestones,
or simply rushing from flower to flower
drunken with the joy to be alive...
What will be your life?

Challenge: liver, ancient, victory, bardana, aid, woodpecker
three mystics: a woodpecker, a badger, and me
ms. woodpecker, an artsy
sort inclined to tie-dyed bandanas, invited me
via a handsome handmade invitation especial delivery
to a dandelion/bardana tea
for an intimate gathering of three
the repast, though sumptuous, lacked charcuterie
which made the cucumber sandwiches key,
garnished with banana which I thought a culinary victory -
though master badger, an ancient sort, did disagree
in confidence to Marigold the bower maiden in repartee
I balanced my platter upon my knee
opposite my golden snickersnee
and we sipped our dandelion/bardana tea with glee
as we chit chatted, most handily,
about this and that to such a degree
that the beeswax candles were laid waste upon the settee
whilst the man in the moon smiled down upon us through a window-sea
and all the problems of the world were solved to a vast degree
for few are the things in this fantasy
we three mystics cannot foresee

Charming poem. With illustrations would grace a poem book for children. And you were right with bardana I meant bandana, thought I enjoy bardana as vegetable.

The Insane Moment
The white curtains of the kitchen
billowed
while the lapis lazulli spoons
danced
wildly
on the hearth.
The clockface
pointing at midnight,
glided down
leaving a void,
while
the gourd
on the sink
grinned its
calabash grin.
Next: escape, heirloom, vortex, hares, industrious, togetherness.
Love your poem... fanciful images :)

Challenge: escape, heirloom, vortex, hares, industrious, togetherness
tiny vortices
tiny vortices dance in a maundering
stream - why they form at all is a mys-
tery, but sometimes a june bug will
light upon a floating bit of leaf and find
itself unable to escape - dragged down
and spirited away to who knows; where
industrious glyphs
heirlooms of togetherness
morph into plowshares
