A little brevity to take us through Thursday. A petite pen request. 30 words or less to Ron Hick’s painting, ‘Impulsive.’ If you feel inspired, follow your impulse and pen me something beautiful and brief.

A Strong Specimen
You grew on me
somewhere in Central Park
beneath tupelo trees.
Park bench luncheons,
cold-snap complaints,
one-way conversations,
sour lips.
Strange,
but beneath sunny
skirt, a late bloom,
glossy honey.

Love the gradual thawing of their interactions here, and that last stanza is positively STEAMY *chef’s kiss* ❤

Love this K. I have also had a stab – ’twas fun!
Unaware I was a fraction,
Until now.
Is this what calculus observes ?
An ever-moving swirl of impulse.
My world for this brief moment
Fitting me to one sweet kiss.
