Image: Happiness (here)
3WW given words:
carefree ear-splitting
deadpan (a face showing no expression)
Sunday's Whirligig's the 12 given words:
thumb flick lonely parakeet sits plum
buttocks game shelf nags cook turn
Carefree days were back and problems kept at bay
No more ear-splitting screams reverberating across the room
She could just thumb her nose deadpan at anything
that moved with a flick of her fingers
Such was the feeling unshackled off the bonds of a relationship
How she loved the freedom
She felt lonely though, as a parakeet sitting plum on her buttocks
But game for anything to fill up the void
His absence was telling initially as shadows of movements dancing on the shelf
That came incessantly foraging unto her feminine innocence
But now she was spared
At least there were no more nags or long discourse
She could now cook up some ideal scenes of happiness
To turn an empty room into something boisterous
A celebration of sorts with a big hurrah
Yes, finally, evaporation!
He was gone for good, forgotten!

Sumana's at PU's Midweek Motif - absence
absence that gives freedom is sure to be enjoyable...well written Hank...
ReplyDeleteI can relate to that Hank, being in a not so good relationship......now free,but there is the lonely side to it. Excellently put. Well done.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
I especially like imagining the "shadows of movements dancing on the shelf" and slowly fading away.
ReplyDeleteIf there was screaming involved, she didn't need him. Nice use with the words, Hank.
ReplyDeleteToss the jerk aside and enjoy life's ride. Way for her to be.
ReplyDeleteHank, you do so well with these word prompts. Well, I guess she is better on her own.

ReplyDeleteSome absences are welcome! :-)
ReplyDeleteNo wonder she's so happy she figured it out and came out on top.
ReplyDelete"A parakeet sitting plum on her buttocks"---haha, nice imagery :-)
ReplyDeleteA good absence...much needed sometimes to purge and let go so we can find freedom and happiness! Nicely done....
ReplyDeleteAbsence of someone undesirable surely leads to some relief and excitement. Excellent write.
