A word prompt to get your creativity flowing this weekend. How you use the prompt is up to you. Write a piece of flash fiction, a poem, a chapter for your novel…anything you like. Or take the challenge below – there are no prizes – it's not a competition but rather a fun writing exercise. If you want to share what you come up with, please leave a link to it in the comments. Thank you, Sammi, for hosting!


Time for a walk, I'm short on steps
Outside my door, one tiny phlox,
a vivid purple, demands my attention
It succeeds. I photograph it and turn
right into the rain I hadn't noticed
Big, fat drops bounce off the hot pavement
releasing petrichor
delighting my nose
God, I love that scent!
I breathe deep and keep walking
Turning the corner, a bright white cloud
Can white be vivid?
it is so bright
over there, while
thunder cracks
over here
I jump over puddles, laughing
all the way home
