Now I Shall Be Spectacular


A seed blew into my garden. It took root, sprouted and grew unnoticed until wisps of honeysuckled air come-hithered me. So spectacular was the flower that I gobbled it up, fruit and all.

    A seed blew into my garden - such a powerful beginning. The rest of it is lucid as well.

      You know our paths will be within shouting distance, at the least. 42 words looks doable.

    From so gentle to so greedy. Wonderful metaphor. And, as others have said, you are already spectacular, but hope all that fruit helps anyway.

    noooo don't eat me!! Great write Kymm, if you ever come to France one day give me a shout (mainly you because Spain is closer than America and all of those faraway places Trifectans come from)... I don't know if my email is on my blog but if not you could just add it in a comment, not that you'd want to go to Paris when you live in Barcelona (it's so much cooler) ;)

      Haha Sorry, you've already been digested.
      I will be sure to give you a shout out if I go to Paris. My daughter says she wants to study at the Sorbonne, so who knows? And the same for you if you venture down to Barcelona!
      Thank you, bookworm!
