It has been a while since I had an opportunity to just sit down and write extra posts. This week my goal is to participate in all the challenges I once took part in weekly. I am having just so much fun!
It is time to take up Rochelle’s weekly photo fiction prompt. If you would like to join in just click on the photo below and you will be whisked over to Rochelle’s place and there you can discover the rules of play.

Serenade
By JE Lillie
She had little to show for the last two years, just what was in her duffel. He owned the rest. When he told her about the new woman it had taken her only fifteen minutes to clear out.
Standing on the lift platform she realized it had all been a dream. Reality couldn’t be rolled up in under a half hour. She promised herself it would never happen again.
The street player arrived then and opened up his guitar case. As he began to play she smiled. He smiled back, and the dream began again.


Dear Joe,
I hope this dream doesn’t turn into another nightmare. Nicely done.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Thanks Rochelle. She sure knows how to dream herself into trouble.
You need to have dreams… and maybe this time it will be true…
Just maybe!
WOW, this was a curious one, with the dream turn in it–relieved for a happy ending.
I am glad you liked it!
I did!
🙂
🙂
Hopefully, her dream will turn into reality one day. 🙂
There is always tomorrow.
I so enjoy your writing Pastor J, can’t wait for your book!
Loved how the dream was reignited!
Thanks Deb. I am not sure where this dream is going to lead her. I might have to develop it and see.
I look forward to it!
Loved the last line, but I can’t help thinking she falls for people a little too easily 🙂
Oh I am with you on that one. I don;t know what made me make her so unguarded.
I really liked this Joseph. The vulnerability of your main character came through so clearly, and you’re right, reality can’t be rolled up in under half an hour. Good one!
Thanks Sandra.
Very enjoyable indeed. Methinks she does fall a tad too easily in love but then again, at least she is not closed up to it!
I think she falls way too easily. Dreams become nightmares when not properly vetted dontchaknow.
Yep… I do!
🙂
Some people just do not know how to get off the merry-go round!
Good story of one of those people.
Speaking as one currently not on the merry go round, I am with you on this Dawn.
