Roses!

She smelt them even before
she entered.. rose, her favourite! The petals were everywhere – strewn on the
ground, the bed even on the side tables.

Standing in one corner of
the room was her culprit. She looked deep into her eyes and said, “The truth
now, you took the flowers from my vase, right?”

***********

This one is inspired by my daughter who used to be so much in love with rose petals that she would never let the flowers sit in the flower pot.

… and it’s day 6 folks, the penultimate day of our week long 55er challenge at Marathon Bloggers. Today’s prompt was ‘She looked deep into her eyes’

The real stuff!

Tall, dark and handsome,
rich and maybe famous too..

that’s all what I had
dreamt of before I met you.

That dream you broke, you
sure did,

A hundred new ones you
gave me instead.

Tall, dark and handsome is only
fluff

Fame and fortune are just
not enough,

This is IT – the real
stuff.

Day 5 of the Marathon Bloggers’ 55er week and I’m still here. Today’s prompt is ‘Dreams’.

The weighing machine

I watched her watching me for months. But I stood unmoving, stoic,
pretending disinterest. She reciprocated, pretending disinterest in my
disinterest.

She came, each day. Each day we played out this charade.
I didn’t give up. She didn’t either.

Finally…… she wore me out. I gave in. I moved.

Triumphant, she announced, “I’ve lost weight!”

Day 4 at Marathon Bloggers’ 55er week. And today’s prompt – Weighing Machine. Whew!!

Mum, is such a spoil
sport and what an eagle eye she has! She always
appears as soon as things get interesting. “No”, “Stop”, “Don’t”.. that’s all I
hear. Tell me why would God make such fascinating things if he didn’t intend us to explore? The sand
in the garden, the electric sockets at home, the water in the bathroom pot, mums
makeup stuff – to touch, to taste, to feel – that’s what they’re for.
