White swans
Are ten a penny

Oh so manyAnd then there are
The black ones

Day 12 of Linda’s #JusJoJan challenge, hosted by herself again today!
The Just Jot It January 12th prompt, brought to you by Tessa of the blog Always A Writer, is: “Tingle.” Use it any way you’re inspired to. And make sure you stop by and say hi to Tessa as well! Here’s her blog: https://finallyawriter.com/
A little poem I wrote …
Crush
Just a little tingle
of excitement
Just a frisson
of joy
Not wanting to
get too happy
Need to act
a little coyNeed to keep
myself in check
Or else the world
will see
How much I
am affected
Because today
he looked at me!Ritu 2017

Sasha’s back with the second prompt for #Writespiration.
Your challenge is to write your story using the weekly theme/prompt and write it in just 52 words…. EXACTLY, no more, no less.
Submit your entries in the comments or on a blog post and I post them the following week with the new prompt. You have until Sunday to enter.
This week’s prompt is to write about the badly timed trump!!
So… here goes…
She could feel the pressure building.
The music was loud. Surely letting one go wouldn’t hurt…
They slipped out to the beat of Beyonce’s latest release.
Relief.
Last one.
Out it came, loud and proud, as the dj faded the tune out so the Groom, her new husband, could start his speech.
There you go Sacha!!!!
