Think it's easy...try it





 

We stood in silence
leaning over the stone bridge
watching mallards with their ducklings;
not another word of regret left
to be spoken.

    Nice!

    Could be a good opening for a much longer story as well.

    Such punch those last two lines. That's what I like about your stories/poems, never predictable, always make you think!
    Hm, character count, never thought about trying that one out. Counting words seems relatively easy by comparison!
    Thanks for visiting my blog and your kind words. Yep, photo trip tempts me!!

    Suz, you take it from a game to art. That's just so lovely -- and so in tune with my own thoughts this week that I *doubly* enjoyed it.

    This is a very evocative glimpse into an intriguing relationship. Is this where their story begins, or ends?
