First 50 Words~~ Curate Life

I am in the process of taking stock, auditing the unnecessary aspects and accoutrements. Where do I go from here? Eliminate all the negative corners? Take account of all the clutter and the unusual facets? Delete all the photographs that are purely for unusual or odd aspects of the subject? Re-jig the whole life-picture and start all over again. Curate the public reflection.

First 50 Words~~"Monthly Deposit"

29/4/2014

MONTHLY DEPOSIT

The crops had failed and many people were very hungry. The drought had been with us for months. No water to drink or to grow the crops. The waterholes had dried up and the cattle were dying of thirst. The food-rich countries rallied aound and delivered thousands of tons of food and water to the receiving stations in the area and it was agreed that a monthly deposit of provisions and water should be delivered to food banks until the rains arrived once again.

First 50 Words~"Human Communication"

26/4/2014

HUMAN COMMUNICATION

Non-verbal communication is a very important understated aspect of human communication. Not just sign language, but getting your message across in many other different ways, such as facial expression, smiles and frowns, nods and winks. Then there is the very little understood method of mind-to-mind thought transference that is not recognised officially by the scientific community. Mind-reading I believe is real and not a branch of science fiction.

First 50 Words~"Red Geranium"

RED GERANIUM

There were 50 wide steps up to our front door. Many a treacherous Winter’s day I have nearly slipped and had a fall. Autumn was just as bad with the occasional fallen leaf to trip on. Spring was my favourite time of the year, we put a pot with a red geranium on each side of every step.
100 beautiful pots of red geraniums that flowered all through Summer.

First 50 Words~"Mostly Sunny"

24/4/2014

MOSTLY SUNNY

Holidays!
What to pack?
We are going South.
I hear the place we heading for has
Tropical rainstorms, Hurricanes, Floods,
Even Tsunamis have been known to occur.
Also the odd Earthquake to break the monotony.
Shorts are a must, sunglasses, sandals, short-sleeved shirts.
Better include an umbrella, a pac-a-mac a couple of sweaters and boots
Just in case, although I understand from checking the internet and doing some research
The place we are going to is MOSTLY SUNNY.

First 50 Words "Earth Day"

23/4/2014

Earth Day

My earth-day was a day on the allotment. Shrugging off the city suit and tie, the uniform of the office, I would change into my gardening clothes and spend a day with the thick fertile soil. Feeling the earth trickling through my fingers I would place tiny seeds in the soil to produce beautiful large plants bearing the fruit of the fertility of the earth.

Red Shift of the Blue Planet

22/4/2014

This is my response to the latest picture it and write prompt from Ermilia's blog.

RED SHIFT OF THE BLUE PLANET

Seen from space The Earth is a Blue Planet

When the blue of the planet turns red with fire. Millions upon millions of minds open with an intellectual translucence of energy. A pouring out of intellectual fire,

Creative work with words, ideas, art and science, mingling and moving. A red shift as the combined rivers of thought marry the waves together into a mutual fire-storm of thought and creativity.

The spread of the waves through an internet of fire joins and moves, burning borders over an internet of peaceful co-existence.

The blue planet becomes red with the fires of freedom. Red seas shine into space through sharing of cultures and mutual thought.

THE FUTURE OF SEX

Madame Rose studied her crystal ball intently. "The future of sex is a conundrum, procreation, recreation or abstinence? The singularity of sex, masturbation? Reproduction by in-vitro fertilisation?" After much careful consideration the wise lady said, "The future of sex is in the past, without the past there would be no future. Love is the answer, old fashioned pure love is the future of sex."

Micro-man
Thomas was a private investigator, hired by wealthy folk to keep them informed of many things.Thomas was a fount of information garnered during his professional career. He was a man who believed in what he did. His favourite expression was, "It's the little things that matter", as he planted another miniature microphone under the desk of an unsuspecting client or the subject of his attentions.
