One of the fellows that I work with also writes and he suggested that we challenge ourselves to strengthen our writing skills. We chose this prompt from a writing exercise book I have had forever.

Feel free to participate, because the more the merrier, as we all know.

Prompt:
Depict a cemetery from the standpoint of a woman who, for the first time in ten years, visits her lover’s tombstone. Even if her emotions are strong, don’t express them in global terms “she was overcome with sorrow,” but show expressions of the emotion in what she sees, how she sees it—birds, plants, ants, other tombs, mourners.

James and I arbitrarily assigned a length of 500-1000 words.

So, my offering is behind the cut.
