Dead and Wearing Green
She was wearing that green dress when I first saw her, five years ago to the day. Flowing meadow fabric draped over long legs, thick auburn hair flowing down her back. That smile. Of course, she is still beautiful now. But now she is no longer alive.

All of the meaning and importance that floods out from this bite-sized brilliance - just chef's kiss great.
Mr. 'C'anterberry - aka; Pc ~ Simply the BestPestPiece - Garbage vs Banquets ~ So glad I've just discovered your marvelous eclectic presentations. As I scroll through them *I've subscribed with pleasure. I'm just a retired legal writer morphed into a self-described 'Goof Writer; nothing more - not into contests or rewards - But, I so like your 'Original' offerings among so many snippers/with sharp scissors within our VillageBucket. Jk, 'K'antor with a 'K' Jay Kantor, Chatsworth, California 'Senior' Vocal Author - Vocal Village Community -
