Can You Tell A Story In…

It’s Thursday once again and that means five-word story time. Your new word this week is:

SPELL

So can you tell a story in five words using the word SPELL in it somewhere?

Last week’s word was WIND. Here are your WINDY stories:

Keith Channing:

Wind is indeed a homograph.

Wind can be a homophone.

Wind is thus a homonym.

Blow, blow, thou winter wind! [Shakespeare]

Ruth Scribbles:

The wind winds me up.

East wind, snow showers today!

Ritu:

Wind your neck in, love!

“Oops!” she said. It’s wind!”

Peter Wells:

Ill winds have no manners.

Lance Greenfield:

  7. Spell your assignation, be proud,
    Project it aloft to the cloud.
    Each time that I fail
    Leaves me weak and frail;
    Losers are just not allowed.
