Weekly Scribblings #1: January is here, with winds that blow kisses ~
For this Weekly Scribblings edition, I want you to pick any three words from the given word list that fit the mood/theme of your prose or poem and write on a topic of your choice. Also, if you opt to write prose, (i.e. stories, essays, articles) then please keep it to 369 words or fewer.
amaryllis grapefruit blood lips scones
somewhat deep touch sky fervour
percussion cast gravel sleep harbinger
darkness warmth twilight bedside cogitation
Inside the grapefruit
ruby red turned
to blood. Horrified
I watched it drip
onto the kitchen counter.
Certain it was
a harbinger of darkness
I ran through the house
turning on every light.
Tip-toed back to kitchen.
The counter was bare.
Creepy and well written.
