    Well, since PotS and PanS haven't really been getting too much activity, they may get kick started more if you, the denizens of KHV, submitted themes instead of relying on the INFINITE WISDOM of Cat~.
    did i mention INFINITE

    Alphabetize your lists. Make it easier to see if a given idea has been used or is on the will use list.

    Alliteration (use it in related entries)
    Assonance (use it in related entries)
    Dissatisfaction
    Formal (use any true structured poem)
    Limerick (use this particular structure)
    One Chance (make no changes to anything once it's committed to paper or document, no formatting, no editing, no starting over, no corrections, no matter how small, no exceptions)
    Scale
    Size
    Sonnet (use this particular structure)
    Timed (give limited writing time, honor system)

    Interesting words right?

    Swaying roses,
    unyielding love,
    crescent moons,
    shallow hope,
    lost dreams,
    thoughtless tunes of a forgotten time,
    memories of what was and will be,
    an endless expanse of colorful stars,
    withheld breath

    That's all for now until I can think of something more interesting.
