Looking out from my huge empire

The season changing

Rain is falling

Upon the dead, yellow moss

 

Snow Covering the frozen lake

Mist rolling over the valley beyond

Oh what a sight, now I feel such a fake

What empire?

rolling yellow moss
covering dead fake
empire rains
in lake season.

It was a challenge, but I tried to make at least a stanza on the words given. Couldn't and added [in] & one [s]. It really makes no sense, as sometimes poetry doesn't appear to right away. Even less sometimes in free form Prose. I enjoyed the trying and really enjoyed your well written poem. I think I'll try within the 40 the make a recognizable pretext... Thanks for making me smile.

Wow. I like the idea of constrained word poems and you did a great job managing/ restraining yourself there. And the last line was BINGO for me. Good Job..
