hosts a weekly writing prompt
using the below photo, write a vignette or poem
Five nearly ripe tomatoes on the vine
I am tempted to pick one and bite into it
imagining the sweetness dripping over my lips
as I take bite after bite
devouring it like a good man
;)
That was a surprise ending, to be sure! Nice piece!
ReplyDeleteI left you tidbits along the way...sorry I had been away for a bit...isn't life busy?
ReplyDeleteI love reading your work.

ReplyDeleteThat "like a good man" almost sounds like a good man verging on a good vampire! Great piece of writing!
