Wednesday’s Words on a Friday

 

Wednesday’s Words on a Friday



The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles.

This month the words/prompts are supplied by Elephant's Child and can be found here

 

This week's words/prompts are: 

 

a photo of an old woman   



 

and/or: 

 

1. destined 2. remarkable 3. lure 4. aware 5.rules

 

also including Charlotte's colour of the month: clay brown

 

His eyes, clay brown like liquid honey,

Remarkable,

Remembered now in old age,

Memorable.

Destined to lure her against the rules,

Inexorable,

Aware he would lead her astray,

Inevitable.

She wept for her innocence lost,

Pitiable,

And hid her head under her shawl,

Invisible.
