Unexpected Transitions

Who could sketch this?

The light of a waning gibbous through an upper-windowpane. The illumination of a decorated, artificial Christmas tree. The chilly draft in the sun room from the windows within three walls.

Seriously, who could?

the difference

a year makes

cold night

Mish hosts Quadrille #190 over at dVerse, where we write using the word “sketch.”

    A year can make a world of difference, you’re right. I like how you formatted your quadrille. It pulls the reader in and asks them to think.

    A great question, “who could sketch this?”. Life is so unpredictable. Between the decorated tree and the chilly draft, there are layers to unravel here. Very nice, Frank.
