Challenge of the Week LXXXVII
Descriptive Writing. One of the four foundational elements of the written word. You can write about anything you want, poetry or Prose; but make sure to focus on your descriptions. Whether you're describing a character, a setting, or an emotion, we want the imagery to leap out of the page. But tread lightly - there is such a thing as too much description. We're looking for that perfect balance. Imagery that sings, but doesn't scream.
Why I Can Never Be Happy
The chill of a cold summer morning brings forth appropriately bitter utterances of response. As blinding pale sunlight cuts through the bright sky, piercing whatever clouds dare linger, a simultaneous breeze carries by, sterilizing whatever warmth the soft rays held. The light, robbed of it’s substance, proceeds to blind those unfortunate enough to greet it’s steely gaze with a perilous white abyss that may only be escaped by the soft embrace of darkness. With a sigh akin to that of a wounded animal steadily accepting it’s own demise, they carry themselves forward with heavy steps, embarking upon a new day with countless more defilements to come.
