Words at Work: Geography Duet

Grand Canyon, Yellow Stone National ParkImage by lubright via Flickr
Pebble
Small, insignificant
Rolling, stumbling, gathering
Stone, speck, peak, slope
Standing, towering, living
Ponderous, majestic
Mountain

Plains
Open, infinite
Rolling, undulating, breathing
Grassland, sea, canyon, wrinkle
Plunging, falling, delving
Deep, wide
Valley

Words at Work -- Understanding

This is part of my words at work program -- or words I write whenever things are slow -- hahaha! -- at work. This is the form of a rondel.

The Golden Gate Bridge refracted in rain drops...Image via WikipediaAnd in the pouring rain she stood,
again not knowing where to turn.
She did not know or ever learn
that all the crying did no good.

He would not treat her like he should,
no matter how for him she'd burn.
And in the pouring rain she stood,
again not knowing where to turn.

His rage she weathered as she could,
his brand of love she could not earn,
his reasons she could not discern
and she knew she never would.

And in the pouring rain she stood.
