This week saw the restart of our Creative Writing Group. The tutor had us each write down on a slip of paper 5 characteristics of ourselves, excluding physical and other obviously identifiable ones. Shuffling the papers around we each then ended up with a set of characteristics which were not our own. We were then asked to write something using all 5 aspects: this was not to be about our fellow writer. The characteristics I received were Weird, Happy, Sad, Loyal, Intense. From these I wrote the following The spidery finger stretches forthacross the firmament.First contactWonder fill the boy’s eyes and heartFriendship visualised. Tears of sadness, tears of joyThoughts of homes far apartThe secret sour taste of partingThe ultimate sacrifice of letting goa friend never forgotten.© Sheila Ash, 2014 And in case you wonder what these words made me think of….. ashramblings
