Does she Regret?

The dog turns its head looking down the path as she carries it,
its cute nose and dark eyes innocently.
She is holding it close as it provides her intimacy
Down the long road towards the valleys.

With her pink back pack and her high heeled boots,
her tiny knotted bow, and white dress
Does she regret leaving him to get away?

She has no idea where she is going, no path to follow
as she jangles the dog collar
She does not regret leaving him
for the path ahead offers her a better future.

Letters of the Past

The letters in his hand were crisp, clean, and pure white and had the age of youth while Sebastian's hands were wrinkled, old and worn out. He smelt the perfume of the letters which were like flowers in the room showing down onto him. He rocked slowly as he held them and whispered 'Lillian' while Beatrice didn't budge and had gone to sleep purring away in his lap.  As the light glistened in the fireplace the colours were reflecting onto the walls of the living room like colours of the rainbow as he thought of Lillian and the past. It was at university where he had met her first, he was himself lost in the corridors, with his shirt half tucked into his trousers, tie askew and hair rough and looking at the board trying to find his class. He heard her voice, 'excuse me' and turned towards her. It was her golden hair that struck him. It shone in the corridor like a gem and it was long. She looked as though she were a mermaid emerging from the sea. He could feel...

Christmas Wish

Frost was glistening like jewels shining as though it was worth a million pounds. The wind was whistling like a naughty child intermittently. Figures of people hustled around to gather Christmas presents last minute. Their faces were full joy like sunshine because of the air of Christmas was approaching. Kids unable to sleep, counting the hours and pacing within houses. Chestnuts were roasting on the open fires, turkeys defrosting and stockings being laid out in anticipation for Santa’s arrival.      Christina was inside near the warmth of the fire which glowed red and arose like a phoenix from the ashes as it burned warming her up. She was eagerly waiting for Peter’s call. The phone rang like the jingle of bells and her heart started to beat faster. “Hello I miss you” he expressed. “So do I. Been waiting for your call all day, are you going to come back for Christmas Day?” she asked. “I hope so... Works been crazy”. He soun...

You are so loved

https://www.creativewritingink.co.uk/resources/writing-prompts/ It came like a thief without warning, There were no signs. It stole my life away, parts of me gone: hair, nails and feeling fatigue. It came like a tornado out of the blue, There were no signs. It changed my life, job, career, money and friends were lost. The word was cancer, it spread fear, anxiety and depression. The paper was there, what could I write now? The expression You are so loved came like the light out of dark, The people who mattered stayed, my family, husband and some friends. It was my strength and hope for the future that You are so loved. I had come from out of the pain into new beginnings.
