100 Word Challenge: The 21 word edition!

November 5, 2011 Mrs TeePot

In winter we shiver, our muscles quiver,
Unless we wrap up warm.
Hat, scarf, gloves, cuddles, love.
No longer feel forlorn.

Snowy Nantwich

Boy oh boy that was hard! *Wipes sweat from brow* I’ve been pondering this prompt since it was said and kept trying, and failing, to write! I’m not a fan of what I came up with, but at least I managed it!

Mrs TeePot also goes by the name Livi and is a tea drinking, chocolate munching, social networking writer. She is the Snapshot Round Up writer for Britmums and also moonlights at www.urbanvox.net adding some extra raunch to their "Fun & Frolics" column.

    I thought this one was awfully difficult, too! I’m glad you persevered. I like all those things that warm us up. I think you did just fine.

      From the blurb around each entry it seems a lot of us struggled! Definitely a toughie!
