The day played on a continuous loop reserved for her mind only.
Brilliant flashbacks fluttered past reflecting ghosts from other days.
Grains of sand slipped through the hour glass stealing the memory frame by frame.

“Come dance with me,” Randa said.
My heart was too heavy, my eyes too red, my emotions too raw.
“It is ok baby, I know how to lead.”

My students had style my Rembrandt, Picasso, Monet, and Manet and twenty-two others I loved.
Then there was my little Pollock, ah Pollock.
Who knew abstract expression was so difficult to clean?

Simon was super cute, highly efficient and he learned everything about me.
I didn’t have to worry about cleaning or cooking or a hundred other minor things.
My life was arranged, tidy, sterile and devoid of any spontaneity.

The quest for Eldorado worn for all to see with destiny a foregone realization.
Hypnotized by lust for gold and glitter, desire soon became her master.
Weary worn the quest lead home to the dark wave Shadow Valley.

My view remained the same, I lost count and time passed.
Hours slipped into days, days faded into months and months transformed into years.
Days followed nights and scorpions skittered across my skull.

I normally incorporate the two-and-a-half miles of the Freedom Trail into my early morning run.
My favorite part is running through Charlestown Navy Yard, past Pier 1 where Old Ironsides is berthed.
As I run, my heart swells with pride and I hum “O say can you see by the dawn’s early light…”

Suki adored the idea behind the “One True Love” Lantern Festival.
Your lantern’s flight will reveal the fate of the relationship between you and your heart’s desire.
Her lantern launched, she watched as another lantern jostled her own; tipping on its side her lantern burst into flames and turn to ash before hitting the ground.

Final Exam
Edric was sure she was lost, but when she scrutinized her master’s directions for the umpteenth time everything checked out.
She shook her head sending her fiery red curls bouncing before she took a deep breath and continuing along the dark, intimidating street.
Making the last turn, the sight of two doors turned her blood to ice, and she knew her final training had begun.

Decision Time
Everything Evan knew lay a breath behind him.
Untold adventures, limitless possibilities, and trials he could not even imagine faced him.
What happened next would depend on whether he had the courage to step into the portal.
