Written for https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/tag/word-of-the-day/ Thrilling my first roller coast ride with my dad by my side. I was scared, he held my hand the whole way round. I understood, whatever life shared he would protect me. Never alone, he is always there, a guiding light in my heart.

Cluster
Written for https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/tag/word-of-the-day/ A cluster of thoughts mixed in with the positive, and it was difficult to see through the fog. Sarah opened her eyes, understanding her vision would always remain different. A hazy picture, but not even a portion of living. Her hero held her hand, as he did when she was a teenager.Continue reading “Cluster”
Neglected
Written for https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/tag/word-of-the-day/ Neglected at the end of the garden my yellow petals. Nobody tends to my leftover leaves. Yet I thrive without human interaction. The bustling bees do not care. They collect my nectar to create a honey with a sweeter aroma than most home grown flowers.
Heartbreaker
Written for https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/tag/word-of-the-day/ ‘He will be a heartbreaker,’ Grandad said. ‘Would you like to hold him?’ Sarah asked. He reached out, with an arm cradling his head. In awe of his full head of hair and blue eyes. A tiny hand gripped his finger. The resemblance to his son was strong. ‘I have called himContinue reading “Heartbreaker”
Imperial
Written for https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/tag/word-of-the-day/ I’ve never known any other money that imperial. My parents used to talk about shillings, even when the new money was introduced. I’m old enough to remember the half pence. There was also the thrupenny, which was worth two and half pence. We were taught how to handle money from a veryContinue reading “Imperial”
Grumpy
Today’s word prompt from https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/tag/word-of-the-day/ ‘Grumpy, why is your head so shiny?’ Theresa asked, taking hold of his hand. Walking to the park, she often wondered why he had no hair. Did he lose it in a fight? Or was it, the tooth fairy. She did take teeth, maybe, just maybe she took hair too.Continue reading “Grumpy”
Snow Angel
Written for https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/tag/word-of-the-day/ We always used to joke about the way we met, on a snow covered mountain. I broke my ankle on purpose you said. I still remember you carrying me down to the lodge. I’m not the fallen heroine type. I can look after myself but you were there and I couldn’t getContinue reading “Snow Angel”
Premonition
Written for https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/tag/word-of-the-day/ Waking up, Sheila wondered what her dream had been all about. Was it a premonition of what was to come? She wasn’t sure, but there were some confusing images in her mind. She was on an island, by herself, just reading a book. That would be the dream, when so much wasContinue reading “Premonition”
Battery
Today’s word of the day from https://wordofthedaychallenge.wordpress.com/author/talesfromthemindofkristian/ is battery. ‘I’m not eating that chicken, it is from them battery hens,’ Charlie said. ‘I learnt at school how they keep them in little pens. They aren’t even twelve weeks old. Like they are babies.’ ‘It’s all I have; you need to eat something.’ ‘Can’t we eatContinue reading “Battery”
Forgetful Prompt
I’m not sure whether it is my age, but I reckon I’m getting more and more forgetful. Either I repeat what I say without realising I have already told someone a fact, or I forget things I have been told. Mostly it is names – it makes me seem like I haven’t listened the firstContinue reading “Forgetful Prompt”
