Two Challenges To Meet
Here are two poems, calligraphed and lightly illustrated, that I wrote in response to challenges posed in a Facebook poet’s group I belong to. One challenge was to write a poem using a title that was provided. The other challenge was to demonstrate or evoke an emotion; bonus points were given for not telling the reader what the emotion was, and the reader being able to tell.
A “twofer” challenge for you who read this: which poem goes with which challenge? and which emotion is demonstrated?

Love this as per usual! Clap clap clap!
Thank you, my dear!
Anywhere but here would be the imposed title, and Eighteen minutes, the emotion. The emotion itself is hard to define, sadness seems weak; love and longing, perhaps.
As far as anywhere but here goes, I still prefer Earth to Mars and Venus 😉
The emotion is Grief, Michel. True about Earth, even globally warmed and 50 years hence, will still be less inhospitable than Mars or Venus. Or the heart of a sun… [smiles]
