This week’s prompt is wings. What would you do if you had wings? When you think of wings do you see them on Angels, Doves or Demons? Does your heart take flight when it’s in love? So much can be said and written about something as simple as soft feathery wings. Are there fairies in your garden? Do you miss the fact that there are so few fireflies? Wings can mean so many things to so many people; we want to see what they inspire in you to write. We look forward to your pen and imagination taking flight and can’t wait to see what you offer for us to read in this week’s Think Tank.

Interesting prompt, so many directions to go in~
A new story from me, and this time I used commas! For my next attempt, I may incorporate the little dot at the end.
ReplyDeleteI decided to go a little differently, using the failure of certain 'wings' and their consequences.
ReplyDeleteMine is a piece I wrote a couple of years ago, revised and reformatted for here. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI hate to deviate from the mood but my piece is about having wings but cannot fly.
ReplyDeleteEntitled "Chained Freedom"
I would like to redeem myself with this rather short piece entitled "Soar".
ReplyDeleteI just added another piece, a new one this time: "Wings of Change"
