Poetry Challenge February

I've decided to challenge myself to try and write a poem a day during February, using 4 random words [per day] generated from a random word generator site

I'm not sure how this is going to pan out as I'm away for 4 days in Feb, with no internet access so I will have to write the poems when I get back!

I have already generated all the words I am going to use. 

Today's words: 
Direct
Basement
Search
Baptism

Some words have appeared twice when I clicked to generate, but I'm still going to use them as they are with other words!

How did I choose them?

I generated enough words to have 4 per day in Feb 28x4 = 112
I wrote them down and then wrote the numbers 1-28 above them, but not necessarily in order all the time e.g. 

The first set of 14 I wrote 2,4,6,8 etc above them, then the next set after those - 1,3,5,7 etc
Some sets I wrote, 7, 14, 21, 28, then after that 1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9 and so on

There is probably a more logical way, but thought this would shake them up a bit.

I have 2 poetry blogs which I use to post my poems, although I'm in the middle of putting together 2 poetry books full of the poems on my blog (and my other 2 poetry books I've written). 

Poetry Blogs:
Just-in-Rhyme - all kinds of poems, crazy, serious, 
Pools of Living Water - Christian poetry I've written
