Just for a change..

A tale for The Sunday Whirl where this week’s given words are –

greed tragedy despair presence walk calm strings earth all spirit vibrating heart

When I saw this week’s prompt words I thought it would be fun to write a miserable story for a change! One of utter despair. Lets have a go…

Why on earth did she walk away? Was it greed that changed his once calm heart into a vibrating cardiovascular contraption? All that remained of his spirit was a half empty bottle of whisky, ‘twas like a violin with broken strings…

Mmmm, it’s not going too well. Maybe I should have a go at a cross between comedy and tragedy, I’d call it dromedy and write a story about a camel. Here goes…

Humphrey was born without humps (amusing bit). One day he ate his friend (sad bit) because he was a camibal (amusing bite, sorry, bit). The others feared being in his presence but often failed to see him approaching because (dramatic bit) he was so well camelflaged! (silly bit)…. 

Oh, I give up. 

By the way, what do you call a chicken that writes stories? Eggatha Christie – normal  service has been resumed!
