The challenge is to write a piece with 21 words, "including the title". I call it the Blackjack Challenge. All you have to do is write about the first thing you see after 12 noon on any given day (hyphenated words will count as one word).. I have allotted for only 20 words max as this never counts the title. Even I will wait until after noon before posting. (Prose or poetry, matters not.) Have fun with this!

Perhaps

Excitedly anxious, I scan my inbox hoping to see a reply. Perhaps tomorrow a new lunchtime routine will be necessary.

young

leaning on lockers

sitting on the floor

trading snacks, sharing laughter

hearts light

spirits shining

our youth like sunbeams

radiant.

Outside, the last green tree trembles.

How glad I am to be moved not by the wind but by the spirit.

Cinderella 2.0

Don't know what to do,

am jumping, cheerful and chipper

Clock strikes 12 noon,

oh! I left behind my slipper!!

Chicken soup with rice

Cold winds blow like spikes of ice

I will keep you warm

With my bowl of hot chicken soup with rice

Formidable foe,

I've been dreading this day!

Time to gather my strength,

And squeeze every last bit out of you!

Pain of learning

It aches as I look at the computer or the book.

Hands cramping, yet creating at once.

Work.

The people come and go.

Their lives

Are infinite next to mine.

Trapped here at this desk

Time seems still.

In a line of YouTube choices "Shadow" sits third but is my first choice. Containing a kiss worthy of nostalgia.

Pepsi

Two-liter savoring thirst quencher,

tasting so very fine during mid-day,

brings a smile and satisfaction

that only I can know.
