Her Wintertime…Friday’s Fiction In Five Sentences.

The tiny cry is simply magical.

The best sound that she’s ever heard.

For sixteen years she waited in the Lords chambers, until her faith had virtually shriveled to nothing.

Raising her tired arms, she holds them out for her brand new bundle of love.

At last, when she no longer expected it, fate chose to visit her in Wintertime.

Tuesdays Trickles

Every Tuesday, I share snippets of thoughts that I call ‘My Thinking Corner.’

I would like to invite you to participate. The challenge is quite simple.

Each Tuesday, share your very short snippets of positive, inspiring, motivating, health, spiritual, writing advice, clips, posts etc, that can serve as a prop to motivate others and simply add my link to your post.

I call it my thinking corner because, I actually take out a bit of time just to think through things, encapsulate my thoughts as much as possible and detoxify my mind.

It might work for you in a different way, but the idea is to get the positive thoughts flowing.

Every last Tuesday of the month, I will publish a post with the links of all those who participated through the month and their thoughts.

I hope to see you join. Best regards.

Thirst…Friday fiction in five sentences.

Woman in evening wear and fur coat sits sprawled on the floor with a bottle of wine

She drank till the bottle was empty.

Yet her thirst was no where near being quenched.

The arid dryness that plagues her, is bottled within.

The more she drinks, the worse it gets.

She stares at the rusty blade with bleary eyes.

Friday’s Fiction in Five Sentences.

saxophonist

His fingers caressed the Sax with fondness.

Tears pricked his eyes as he remembered.

The faint sounds of ghostly play echoed in his head and in the house.

Everything was now covered in a film of dust.

Touching his dad’s Sax once more, he packed it back in it’s old box and walked out of the house for the last time, into the bright afternoon Sun.
