ANOTHER "55" WORD FRIDAY + MAGPIE #28

"On the road again", this beautiful Friday in

Charleston South Carolina (I like it here!) 

I combined "55" with Magpie--not much 

computer time (that's my excuse this time!)

MAGPIE PROMPT BY "WILLOW"

("Psssst...Shhhh! Willow, you have nice toes" --the Foot Fet)

"Here am I again, just another chunk of old plumbing.
Sticking my nose out from behind some plaster.
This time between some exquisite human toes.

Whatever happened though,
to those two little Piggy guys on the ends
Maybe they went to buy me something?
To put in my nose?
To stop this nasal drip...

NOTE: Go to G-Man and if you write a "55"

Let him know...then check out others

NOTE: Thank WILLOW for her weekly

prompt for next Tuesday's MAGPIE

FRIDAY "55" ... ALFIE--WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT???

Wholly absorbed in the present
Carrying little of the past
Worrying not of the future

Attached to no person nor thing
I finally taste
The Symphony of Life.

It alone deserves this love--of
My passionate attachments:
Heart, Soul, Mind, Strength

Unencumbered,
Living in the Eternal NOW...
Of what else IS the meaning of life?

The challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to write a story in exactly 55 words. Flash Fiction 55 is hosted by the G-man, (click HERE), a host with the most (years--grin!).
