the 12 given words:
window sailing crammed small bare ancient
rising hummimg light falling friend breast
3WW given words:
intentional
kaleidoscopic (adj: multicolored psychedelic)
lacerate (verb: gash slash wound)
definitely a window of opportunity
not to pass off the joys of sailing
though crammed in a small boat
bare of any pretences of luxury
and seemingly ancient by any standards
but lots of fun to a teenager
that was a long time ago
when given the chance
what a thrill!
rising to the occasion
humming a light little tune
head over heels like falling
in love with a special friend
and heaving a heavy breast
with the first kiss
it was a lucky break not intentional
but with kaleidoscopic hallucinations then
on how it could have been a luxury yacht
lacerated in thinking perhaps
but dreaming of the good life!

Nothing wrong with dreaming a good life Hank ~
ReplyDeleteHi Hank, nice to see you! Love what you came up with using all of those words...excellent. When you're a teenager, the simplest of things can bring job like having your own modest sailboat and your first kiss. Sweet, Hank.
