…
Dragon me a song
full of fire, brimstoned in its
own dark shine. Raven me
a shadowed hope, a feathered
sky. Scrim me a promise, star
-dotted i’s and oceaned breeze
tease. Oh me and know me,
and trinket me loose into this
sun-shriked sea.

Lill has us verbifying everything in sight, over at dVerse. Come play!
Wow what a gorgeous set of words to verbify… dragon is a spectacular verb.
I love everything about this….especially “scrim me a promise.” I’ve always loved the idea of a scrim and use that word sometimes myself. It works magically as a verb. And “trinket me loose” – those two words juxtaposed “trinket” as a verb and “loose” — trinkets are seen with little value, just litle ditties and using the word loose gets that across so well.
Love it all! 🙂
So fun reading everyone’s takes on this!
A gem of brevity & joy; nice rocking of the prompt. I think I verbifed about a dozen nouns. There seems to be a never-ending flow of possibilities.
‘Raven me a shadow of hope’ …… wonderful, wonderful. Great piece of writing.
Dragon me a song…wow…Raven Me a shadowed hope…wow….but then this…OH me…..I cannot express how much that line went right through me…Oh me…Oh my!
as always, I admire your wonderful use of words
Great word play. 🙂
Raven me a shadowed hope, a feathered sky.. sigh.. now that’s gorgeous!❤️
this wordly challenge was made for you. perfect!
“Shine” is your favorite word lately. 🙂
“star
-dotted i’s and oceaned breeze
tease” … Your notebook must be a beauty to behold.
“Raven” and “trinket” are fantastic verbs.
That is absolutely gorgeous! “Oh me…” “trinket me loose”… how absolutely beautiful. Well done…
I was going to pick out my favourite bits, but it’s all my favourite bit. It reads like a charm, somehow. I really really like it.
Nice first line making a verb out of dragon: “Dragon me a song”
Lovely words! I like all your new verbs.
LOVE it! Star dotted “i”s ? How clever. Using trinket as a verb…priceless!
This prompt made me think of you, immediately. LOVE ALL the verbs you used in this!
Magical, De: dragons, rainbows and scrim – I used to have some scrimshaw but wasn’t keen on owning a piece of whalebone. My favourite lines:
‘Oh me and know me,
and trinket me loose into this
sun-shriked sea.’
Wondered what you’d do with this challenge, and you have not (never do) disappointed. This was custom made for you, Dear! You poem so well!
This was awesome!
