Think a story per day, even if you do not get to write it

For Sarah Parker's prompt

Like a gentle wind on a soft summer's day,

A pleasing story whispers to your aching soul

Love me, it childishly pleads to you

Inhale me, exhale me

Reach out and capture me, quickly do

For words hug you just for a fleeting moment

Then flits away to the next eager mind awaiting

For many are we, who have need of a caring touch

Write the words upon your canvas...do it anon

Quite soon, please do

Lest the joy of the moment gets lost to time

Leaving you wondering why, oh why

Can you not remember, the words once written

So fleetingly upon your fragile and tender heart!
