I Challenge You To…

As I’m away at the moment, you have an extra week to prepare your pieces on the subject of SHOPPING. Limericks, poems, short stories – anything goes!

    1. I wouldn’t call Bournemouth very exciting, but it’s glorious this week with the weather!!

    I walk through the ladies’ department of the store slowly, and without intention.
    It seems strangely quiet.
    I thumb through a few garments, but I have no idea why.
    Then as I walk toward another area, I hear your voice and turn around.
    But you are not there.
    You are no longer in this world, you who gave me the gift of life.
    I knew you, but I never did.
    And you are not there.

        Thank you kindly, Esther. I enjoyed writing it. I have not written a short piece like this for a long time. Anne

  3. When it comes to Christmas I tend
    To go crazy and overspend
    But it costs me dear
    Cos all the next year
    I’m paying back my flexible friend
