Either Or

A man stands at the end of a red carpet. Waiting.
Pews line either side of the pathway, the aisle empty, the seats filled with friends
and family for this momentous day.
The ceremony begins, as do gentle flows of tears
as she floats down the aisle slowly.
It's time to move on. A new page has been turned, the rest of the book yet unread.
A black limo arrives, beckoning to
The two bodies, now one living.
They arrive at a place with overwhelming silent serenity.
He lays her down to rest, heart filled with emotion
as quiet peace engulfs them both.

Wedding?
Or
Funeral?

I don't feel like answering a trick question. . .

Ooh, a knew blogger theme!

Nice, Bon-Fire!

The way u wrote this it seems as though the beginning is like a wedding, but then it turns around and seems like a funeral. . .

Thanks, Render.

I always liked movies and books that twist something at the end so you go through the whole story thinking it's one way and then right at the end it's like "whoa" and you want to go back and re-read it with a new perspective. I wanted to try to do something like that.

ANYWAY

How's your writing coming?

Hannah Banana said...

Render - well excuse me for replying before your computer crashed... when's it coming back, btw?

Kakiedoo - it's either one. :) Just a twist on perspective. You choose.

If you want, write a three paragraph minimum short-story about Buttons becoming a knight!

Hannah Banana said...

Will you murder, injure, permanently scar, or throws cows at me if I go a bit over three paragraphs?

And, in return, can you write a story for me?

~Thē Sĭl'ū-ĕt' 該剪影 said...

I have a good idea of what I'll write!

*Evil Grin*

"Mine" strory might be a bit long, too.

Hannah Banana said...

I'll bet mine'll be longer.
