The Face Behind A Broken Window

So, I continue my quest to combine two prompts, one from WordPress (WP), and the other from The Writer’s Block (WB).  The intent is to create an interesting challenge that will entertain the minds of my readers. This is the equation of today’s combination:   [WP = Brilliant] + [WB = Write a story about…

The “Airport Test”

                     Thanks for stopping by Redhead Reflections! I hope this day has treated you well thus far, and I send out good energies to all who read this! Today’s word from WordPress is Forlorn, and the prompt from my book, Writer’s Block is…Opening Lines. So, I…

Haiku: America Bleeds

[WP’s daily prompt = Allergic] +  [Writer’s Block Prompt = Diet] =  Haiku: America Bleeds ***                               A diet of hate,                           And no allergen to greed America bleeds……

Viable Danger

Today’s word prompt is viable. So, I took the liberty of looking it up in several dictionaries, and this is what I found: Alive, capable of living, developing, or reproducing. Capable of working, functioning or developing adequately. Able to exist, perform as intended, or succeed. After digging a little more I was able to discover…

A Day in the Life of Bagsby Jones, Bull Dog P.I.

Bagsby Jones, Bull Dog Private Investigator, was on the case! He wrinkled his brow, sniffed the air, and vigorously kicked his hind legs.  He rarely took the time to relieve himself while on the job, but, this particular deposit had been necessary.  Call it an emergency that couldn’t wait, or, an accident waiting to happen; either would be true.  Feeling his tummy…

Sometimes Resurrection Requires Letting Go (Amanda Miller Garber)

Mother’s Day is difficult for me.  Since it always falls on Sunday, I usually play hooky, so I wont have to put on the façade of “happy mom.”  However, this Sunday was different.  As fate would have it…or maybe God…this Sunday I was slated to help with communion service.  So for that reason, I sucked it up, and…

How to Swallow a Bitter Pill

(A Haiku) Down the hatch, it goes, with a little sugar cane.  Bitter pill, be gone! *** Moral of this Haiku:  If you dread it…do it…then it is done. *** Daily Prompt: Bitter        

Trump-Care, Is It Better?

Hurray for the GOP!  They finally passed a health care bill for the American People!  Mind you, they don’t want it for themselves, or for their families, but they deem it perfect for us.  They were so proud of themselves for reaching this monumental decision, they ordered crates of beer to celebrate.  Oh, what fun. But,…

From Snowflakes to Blanket

I’m a little snowflake, I drift about.   Looking for injustice, hear me shout.   You label me as liberal, and think me lame.   But I embrace your symbol, and use it for my name!   Snowflakes are small, and they seem quite frail.   But when we come together, we are a force…

The God Who Sees Me…

“You are the God who sees me…” __ Hagar   I’ve always felt a kinship with Hagar.  Hagar was the maidservant of Sarah, Abraham’s wife. This is her story: Sarah, the wife of Abraham, was barren.  None-the-less, God had promised  that through their children would come the nation of Israel.  Abraham and Sarah had tried…
