100 Words on Treasures Cont…
Evening Internet. As I was rudely interrupted by the closing of the cafe I was in the other evening, I’m back to finish posting the Treasures 100 Word submissions. (If this is your first time visiting, please see http://velvetverbosity.com/100-words/ for information about the 100 Word Challenge.)
Another victim newbie to the VV 100 Word Challenge…welcome Melissa! A cute piece that makes me think of a pink-cheeked, mischievous grandmother. Just the kind I plan to be.
I walked into the room, and placed the box my grandmother had asked me to bring on the table.
“Sit, sit.” She said.
I did. She was quite good at building the suspense here. The box gave no clue as to what could be inside. I could have sneaked a peek, but that would have been rude. If she had something she wanted to share with me, I could be patient.
“The greatest treasures I have are in this box. Shall we have a look?”
And as she opened up the box, a look of pure joy crossed her face.
Dear Ash first posted a piece about his sweetheart, but something crashed behind the scenes and he came back with this new entry. Two virtual chocolate bars for Ash!
He slammed the gate shut with all of his strength. The clang reverberated in the empty space, echoes seeming to gain strength as if the cold, stone walls amplified them. He held his hands to his ears to keep them out. He felt like he wanted to cry. He only wanted to protect himself – was that so wrong? “Fool,” the stones seemed to cry out. “You only protect yourself from love!” Silence. Interminable emptiness. Could this be true? He dared to begin to hope. In the quiet of that hope her voice began, o treasured voice, to sing a lullaby.
Secret Agent Mama is going to be stalked by a Secret Assassin Mama if she doesn’t stop being so talented! Just kidding, I love you SAM, and you know it.
Sometimes we search for them,
As if they were buried deep,
Out of reach.
Sometimes we wish for them,
As if they were helplessly lost,
Beyond our reach.
Sometimes we call out for them,
As if we are urging them back,
Well within our reach.
These gems we seek,
These prizes we desire,
These desires we warrant,
They are all attainable.
In a smile; a photograph.
In a song; a melody.
In a kind word; an endearment.
In the world; a stockpile
We just need to look.
We just need not to look.
That’s when we will find them.

Ok, here’s the plan until I have time to futz with Mr. Linky. Since the number of submissions just keeps growing and growing, I can no longer post every piece in full here. Starting with this week’s challenge, Fresh, I’m going to choose 1-3 of my favorites and post only those in full, with links to the rest of you.
Back later with the posting on Pillar!
With love,
