List

Posted on March 2, 2015 by https://vivinfrance.wordpress.com

Ms Quickly is continuing to inspire us daily with her quirky prompts.  My first line, except for the last word,  is the prompt.

 

I have here in my hand a list of words
long words, short words
defining words describing words
active words and passive words
rude words and buzz words
jargon, slang and swear words
but without a zing of creativity
they’ll never tell a story
make a poem or sing a song

    Ah, but your creativity made a poem out of nothing at all.

    I love what you did with the prompt! Not only has that zing of creativity, but the sounds are wonderful!

    This is great, Viv. I love the lack of punctuation at the end…as if the story is just beginning. 🙂

    The Zings do the trick. This was fun.
    My novel should be available on Kindle in France, too. I elected that. Let me know if you can’t get it.

    Thanks, Viv
