Can You Tell A Story In…

It’s Thursday and your new five-word challenge is here. Last week, I wanted to know about your SLEEP. This week, I want to know about your EVENING. So can you tell a story in five words, using the word EVENING in it somewhere?

Here are your SLEEPY stories from last week:

Ritu:

Sleep seem elusive, some nights.

Can’t sleep in this heat.

All I need is sleep.

Christine Mallaband-Brown:

Shopping, food, eat then sleep…

Cats sleep all day long!

Sleep by an active volcano?!

I have sleep aponea now.

Sleep on that thought- sucker!

You sleep, I’ll drive home.

EDC Writing:

Sleep walking, wrong room excuse.

Sanjuna:

Sleep my tired mind orders.

Mindful calm sleep I need.

Rhen Laird:

Sleep…dangerous land unavoidably travelled.

Sarah Evans:

Sleep. I always need more!

Val Fish:

Sleep impossible with snoring spouse.

Counting sheep supposedly induces sleep.

Sleep, sleep, where art thou?

Tessa:

Sleep, what is the definition?

I sleep during the day.

I can’t sleep at night!

Sleep apnea keeps me awake!

Sleeping alone is the best!

Bharul Chhatbar:

Let all evils forever sleep.

No negativity, all in sleep.

Rejuvenating, relieving, refreshing, relaxing sleep.

Calm mind, good sleep, nirvana.

    Some evenings are spent outside.

    Hi

    This wonderful evening couldn’t end. Evening light dimmed, night arrived. Evening’s memory lingered, slowly fading.

    Cheers Paul 😀
