My friend, MISSY, has been encouraging me to join the FLASH 55 club. Every Friday, we write a story with 55 words. It's a lot harder than it sounds actually. My first draft was 140 words, eek! This is my first 55 EVER, so please be gentle!
Childhood memories...
presents, cake, candles, pass the parcel,
hair ribbons, scraped knees.
Today, the cake remains, candles increase,
props assembled for more mature games.
Searching for the girl I used to be.
Is she hidden behind the lines on my face?
Put a smile back on your dial girl.
THE BEST IS YET TO COME!
great 55! very good for your first. i am only on #4
ReplyDeleteExcellent first 55! *trying not to be intrigued by the "more mature games"* *innocent* Encouraging message there. Nice work! (And welcome to the group!)

Great that you succeeded in this. I know now that you can count to 55, blondes are really smart.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the 55ers! Nicely done and nice to see a fellow Heliumite participating!

Hi, KB: I actually left a comment earlier, but blogger didn't accept it for some reason. Maybe my computer is haunted. Good first 55. Enjoyed it. My 55 is up also!

ReplyDeleteI really should get back to doing 55's.
