Conception – the fun part
Life – the best part
Death – the hard part
Youth – love and laughter
Prime – adventure, love and laughter
Senescence – rest, reflection, love and laughter
Grabbed by the scruff, it’s all worth living
A prompt last week at dVerse to write a Sevenling proved a tad addictive, so here’s another one for Open Link Night.
Spring REALLY arrived yesterday – warm enough to have lunch and a nap on the patio, so I’m celebrating with a last view of next door’s
magnolia grandiflora 
before tomorrow’s expected gale tears it to shreds!

I really like your sevenling. I couldn’t help noticing, however, that you could use the end of L3 in L1 😉

Hmm. I would switch the descriptions for “Life” and “Death,” but I’m a weirdo.
I really like the last line.

Yup, and I’ve finished and attached the borders on my pineapple quilt so it’s ready for the butterfly embroidery to start.
The sky has clouded over and we’re battening down the hatches for a gale tomorrow!
