The moment of truth came to light - a Quadrille

8 of 12 given words:
yearning boundless grace 
silken fire moment light eggs

Yearnings for the boundless energy
that used to grace the catwalk in bright
silken dresses fired up her desire to
reduce her waistline by skipping lunch

The moment of truth came to light
when liking for eggs put paid to
any pretense of reality
(44 words)

For Brenda's Sunday Whirl Wordle #249 and
Toni's at d'Verse for a Quadrille not
exceeding 44 words to include variants
of the word 'skip'

    I think skipping lunch would not matter in the long run...

    If they were ice cream eggs, who could really say no?

    Ice cream eggs....who could resist? I certainly can't resist this fun multi-use poem. I so like when that is done - spread the poetry wealth!

    Aren't you clever to blend the two prompts--and so effectively. Not that easy in a mere 44 words.

    I have to admit, those particular eggs are very cute and tempting!
