Blissful repose

Scented by fragrant lilacs

So soothing a balm

This Cinquain is inspired by a photo prompt from Susi at I Write Her.  I also wrote a Haiku for it, for Susi’s challenge, but actually wrote this piece first before it dawned on me that I wasn’t writing a Haiku, (which is Susi’s challenge!) LOL  A big thank you to Susi for the double inspiration!!  ❤


A wave

Taking over

Churning with the ocean

Swallowing the sunlit landscape

Imbibes

The Bridge – #100wordstory – #JuneWriting

The night was peaceful, yet carried an eerie feel with it. Waters under the old bridge were unusually calm, a mist was gathering in the trees. The sudden silence didn’t last for very long, a rumble from below made its way across the land. “An earthquake?!” someone shouted.

The bridge, once the center of the town’s joy, began to crumble. Bricks fell into the waters below, a deafening sound. Then it was gone. No bridge to cross. The town folk, startled from sleep, were stuck on the other side, with no way out.

All because a troll had to sneeze.

Soon it would be nightfall, which would surely seal their fate…

The full moon made its way from behind the dark clouds. The night was black as pitch, but she knew he was close by. The low growl he was emitting was hard to miss, against the silence of the night. A rustle of leaves meant he was on the move and would soon be joining her. She waited.

The time of the full moon, when he and she would be one. Yet, neither knew which one they’d ultimately become. Only The Fates knew what the final outcome would be.
