In Other Words

The idea of this challenge is to substitute words of our own into the well-known titles of novels or movies

The first title I have chosen is The Year of Living Dangerously by Peter Weir.





The second title is Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt.





Our Challenge: Select either of the titles and substitute your own words in the place of those indicated below, and write a new poem under the title you have created.

1. The ____________ of Living _____________

or The Year of _____________ Dangerously  

2. ____________ in the Garden of ___________ and ___________
or Midnight in the __________ of Good and Evil or any other combination of either title which works for you.

  4. I should add that any similar title of book or movie will do for this prompt. Do not feel confined to just the two I have selected.

  14. Great challenge Kerry! I'm glad you let us pick other movie titles. I picked "The Butterfly Effect" with Ashton Kutcher changing one word in it. What fun! I'll be around to read in the next few days. The weekend approaches have a good one friends! Hugs!
