This afternoon, I was home early due to the unrelenting snowstorms we are having this winter and was listening to Jian Ghomeshi's show "Q" on the CBC radio. They had a little write-in contest happening..... a challenge to write a love story in 6 words. A few were read aloud, and I was so surprised at how one could offer up a whole love story picture in 6 little words. Here's a link to Q's Blog and comment section......LOTS of hilarious entries.
As I putted around the kitchen making dinner, I began jotting down a few and decided for Valentine's Day, I would post a couple..........
His eyes told her she's desired.
yearning
hoping
longing
for a second chance
Breakfast in bed with whipped cream
Sunday papers
Hot coffee
Sharing silence
End of the day reflection sharing
Sipping Cointreau, looking over at her.
The stories came tripping out of me.....faster than I could jot them down. What FuN!
Duvet diving
cold feet
warm love
Afternoon delight at No Tell Motel.
Naked honesty accepting our beautiful imperfections.
NOW ALL OF YOU OUT THERE...including lurkers who don't normally leave comments...I would love to read your attempts!! Will you leave me a 6 word love story??? C'mon...... it's easier than you think. Let your imagination go for a short ride.
Candlelight slow dance, a world away.
Love's packaged in spicy cinnamon hearts.
I'm still here waiting for you.
Happy Valentines Day. Love to you.
I am here. where are you?

Freebird....welcome. There's nothing like showing the one you love LOVE by going outside on a cold morning to feed the goats. love it!
Layla....your stories sizzle.
Grace. These would make great songs. I "hear" your first story...."make me late for work...again" as a great country song a la Faith Hill and Tim McGraw?
Gypsy...I knew i could count on you to offer up some beautiful yearning stories. thank you.
Caroline........ah.......isn't it wonderful when one finds that person??
Naomi....Feeding each other chocolate kisses...would be a PERFECT line for a Hershey chocolate commercial....I can picture an elderly couple on their front porch sitting together. The Wife unwraps a "kiss" leans over and lovingly feeds it to her husband.

Loads of messy sloppy chocolate kisses.
A knowing look after many years.
Looking for love... finding your heart.
...... just to submit a few to your Valentines post today. I love the one about the no-tell motel. Too cute!
eyes meet, smouldering senses, electricity sparks
dark, smoky, senseless magic, questioning dreams
alcohol infused passion turns into fire
Strong arms hold me tight. Love.
window waterdrops melting
into one drop
two dark eyes
creat bright smile
all thoughts are about the one
heart given please give heart back
dance drink talk laugh forever together
