Combo: Mag 150 and Friday Flash 55


She never spoke of it afterward — the day she slid into and out of ivory lace that played so teasingly against pink that pink had a patina, the day she stood barefoot at the rough cabin door and sought meaning in ether rising from shoe prints pressed into the mossy path, imprinted into her memory.

    Lydia....?
    Fortunately I have you saved in my Favorites, but you didn't post a Link, and when I clicked on your Name, I was denied access to your profile and blog.
    Maybe thats why there is only One Comment so far!
    You call it patina, I call it a nipple.
    Loved your dual prompt 55
    Thanks for playing, I hope you open up your blog to others, and have a Kick Ass Week-End

    Quite Beautiful, Lydia. I love the either rising from footprints pressed into the mossy path. Of course she must be barefoot! It's little details like that that make a memorable piece of writing.

BEGINNING IN 2014 I will reply to only occasional comments here, while appreciating every visit and all comments! My reason is to enable me to utilize that time to read and comment on your blog posts instead! If/when I get more organized I may later return to replying to comments here, but one of my New Years resolutions is to spend more time at your sites: reading, enjoying, learning! Thank you for understanding.

If your blog is associated with a Google+ account, I may not be able to visit you from your namelink. I do not wish to join Google+ and the site sometimes requires that I do so in order to read/comment on posts there.
