“He is a charlatan”, Mina sputtered , “How can you consider this?”
“Oh, honey he’s just a squirrel trying to get a nut, it will be fun”, Mona replied, “I see a tall dark man”.
Mina looked thoughtful, ‘What did Mona know?’
“He’ll reach you first, give him your hand”.

Charles patted his inner pocket, his ticket to another world as if it were charmed. All around him, the noise was overwhelming. The excitement of other passengers palatable, ready to embark on an adventure, a shiver ran down his spine.
He glanced to the bow; Titanic, he shivered again.

The air was crisp, the end of summer a tang running through True’s awareness, lifting her spirit just slightly. She sat outdoors, sipping coffee, twirling a curl and watching the final revelers stagger home, primitive passions finally spent. Cheshire smile bent perfect lips, she knew they would return tomorrow night.

Love all three, Val.
The third – Cheshire smile – nicely put. Primitive passions spent ala alley cat 🙂
I’m catching up with your posts today.

Everyone who reads my flash must know True had to make at lest one appearance.
thanks Eric.
You are truly inspired…and inspiring, Valentine. Talk about three very different flashes and each one only a peek into something much larger. Wonderful reading. 😀
Thank you Tess, these were fun though I waited till the last minute.
Life IS busy. Glad to got to them. 😀
I guess the end is always the beginning of something else isn’t it?
Of course, for us flashers this means a new set of words and a new direction!
I enjoyed this trio of delights Val
you certainly know how to finish
off in style 🙂 Wow…
Have a lovely rest of weekend 🙂

Thank you my friend. The Hot Flashes must always wait to the end for me. They are the most difficult.
Hope your weekend was joyous.

Maybe there really is no such thing as an end. They will always keep coming back. Heck they’ve even recreated the Titanic and are selling tickets at incredible prices. A voyage to . . . . ?

That man is a bit off the center mark, don’t you think? The recreation of the Titanic is what spurred the Flash though 😉
Inspiration from the world around us, inspiration from anywhere.
