Wednesday's Words on a Friday
The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems.
The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind.
If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words.
This month the words/prompts are supplied by David M. Gascoigne and can be found here
This week's words/prompts are:
1.villain 2. visit 3.bone 4.stork 5.memory
and/or:
1.imprinted 2.human 3.kink 4.spring 5.faithful
Also including Charlotte's colour of the month: pretty flower pink
Here is my story:
Incurable disease is a
villain most foul, taking from us life and limb, even bone in some cases.
Though hope springs
eternal and I am faithful to hope, still some tragedy or other is bound to
visit one or more of our humans, our families and friends.
A kink in the design or
plan of Mother Nature perhaps?
These days of trials
will be forever imprinted on my memory.
I shall spend time
gazing at the pretty flower pink of the gentle sunset as I once again call upon
hope to see me through.

Life can take a turn for the worse so easily, too easily, and then we wish we could turn back the clock.
ReplyDeletejabblog; if only that were possible, but changing the past also changes the future.

ReplyDeleteLinda's Relaxing Lair; I'm glad it isn't possible, but do wish things could work out differently in some cases.

ReplyDeleteDora; Mother Nature isn't perfect, just like the rest of us.

ReplyDeleteIt is good you help someone. fK is there for me every day and without her.... and all blogger-friends... I might´ve given up big, especially when Ingo was so sick the blogger-world kept me going with support... The world is a give and take and you will get help when you need it, I am sure (#karma)... Give and take btw, something on the way to you for real :-)
Iris; thank you, a very close friend is in need of help and I will be there as much as I can.
