LIVE LIFE LOVINGLY

Those devious editors at Trifecta Writing Challenge are asking for a three-word entry for the new year:

Check back in 2015 to see how I did.

We stood
hand in hand
On the precipice
Of love unbounded
Joy within
without
Spiraling downward
Nary a sound
Two hearts
beating
Two lovers
Flung
into a myriad
Of emotions
Who is there
To stop us
Who would
Dare
Come between
Heartbeats collide
Wishes unite
We are left
Standing
Waiting
Loving
Through the years
Hand in hand
Many a precipice
We have stood
Peering over
Which way
One way
Or another
Joined at the
Heart
Beat – beat – beat
Heartbeat
Not two – one
Heartbeat
Love united
Precipice defeated
Life lived
Love lived
Together as one
One together
Standing on the precipice

100 words inspired by Velvet Verbosity’s challenge “Catapult”


This year we all
Brought snowmen
To the gift exchange
We feared we
Might be fired
For pranking
Our boss, but it
Took her until
Gift number 8
To realize
She’d been had
