Words for Wednesday
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 Sean Jeating and can be found here
This week's words/prompts are:
1.innocent 2.evil 3.face 4.expanding 5.born
and/or:

Include Charlotte's colour of the month if you wish or if you can: pumpkin orange.

His face appeared so innocent but he was born evil and expanding his sinister ways every day.
ReplyDeleteAlex J. Cavanaugh; excellent and so short.
DeleteBen trobat, encara que sigui curt. ;-)
DeleteInnocent children have always been born who became evil bastards. Given the growing human population, it should come as no surprise that there are more evil bastards on this planet today than ever before. They would, however, be a minor problem. The problems are caused, or rather, exacerbated, by a majority who allow criminal psychopaths to run their business instead of stopping them or, as recently to observe, even enthusiastically elect a pumpkin-orange idiot as their president.
ReplyDeleteSean Jeating; another excellent one with much truth to it.
DeleteVery sad and true...
DeleteFins que els toqui la butxaca... ;-)
DeleteTot i que crec que hi ha algún gen desequilibrat que en té part de culpa de que hi hagi gent tant malvada. No creus?
Working on it, back soon.
ReplyDeletemessymimi; see you soon.

Before I met Sean Jeating I was quite innocent. Then I spotted his contorted face through my letterbox and henceforth my horizons started expanding. I was born to trust and when I come to think of it, the powerful influence he exerted over me should have come as no surprise. It was like being transported to another planet - a minor one if you follow me. There it was as if the natural colours of Nature had been turned a vile pumpkin orange colour. I wonder where Sean Jeating is now
Yorkshire Pudding; quite intriguing, a bit nightmarish even.
DeleteHe, he, he! ... busca'l que el trobaràs!
DeleteHappy Writing!
ReplyDeleteThe Happy Whisk; thank you.
DeleteGood stories, lol.
ReplyDeleteMargaret D; we have good writers. Thank you.
DeleteHehe, just a short one from what happened to me yesterday:
ReplyDelete"Ingo and also fK advised I go to the new boss´s welcome party to show my innocent, not so evil face.
To some it was a surprise as I usually work from home. They were happy to see me - talked to the CEO and he smiled as I had come in my happy red, white-polka-dotted coat he always enjoys.
Despite I had a brolly with me, this planet gave us rain whilst boss stood outside grilling sausages.
I offered my brolly - violet with white polka-dots. New boss sure now knows me."
Iris; thank you, I like this and I am glad you went to the welcome party.
DeleteNo hi ha com caure bé al cap, almenys al principi. ;-)
DeleteMy short story will be here tonight.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way to keep the writing tradition alive, even with Delores closing her blog! It's so thoughtful to keep the spirit of Words for Wednesday going.
ReplyDeleteGERMANS
ReplyDeleteEn un PLANETA on la màgia i la realitat coexistien en harmonia, havien NASCUT dos germans de pèl TARONJA CARBASSA, tan diferents com la nit i el dia. El gran, un jove de ROSTRE serè i mirada INNOCENT, era conegut pel seu cor bondadós i pel desig d'ajudar als altres. El MENOR, en canvi, era considerat per molts com un ésser entremaliat i creava caos allà per on passava. Tot i que la seva aparença era innocent, tenien una gran curiositat pel seu entorn.
Un dia, es van trobar amb un home MALVAT que solia sembrar discòrdia.
— Vine, et vull demostrar una cosa!— va dir el menor, estirant la mà del seu germà.
Malgrat la poca experiència, el jove va decidir enfrontar-se a l'home.
— VINE aquí! No et tinc por— va dir, buscant coratge dins seu.
— Sortiu d'aquí! Tota aquesta EXTENSIÓ de terra és meva— va cridar l'home enfadat.
El petit va estirar el cos i va donar tres passes endavant...
—Què has dit!, repeteix-m'ho!— li va dir, mentre donava tres passes més.
L'home, en mirar darrera seu, ajupí el cap i se'n va anar perdent tota la seva influència.
El poble que els havia SEGUIT en silenci, recuperà la pau amb SORPRESA i ho celebraren amb els nois, demostrant que la veritable fortalesa pot arribar en allò inesperat... Sempre hi ha un camí cap a l'harmonia i l'enteniment mutu... ;-)
Moltes gràcies!
