Assignment: Think up a word that sparks vivid imagery for you .. or maybe a favorite word, and write about it using the five senses.
I chose the word Serendipity.
Serendipity tastes like a chocolate bar, smooth, creamy texture, sweetness exploding across my tongue. Each bite brings new pleasures.
To me, serendipity smells like freshly washed laundry, hung on the line to dry in the sunshine beneath a blazing blue sky with puffy white clouds.
If I was going to gaze at serendipity, it would be in a redwood forest of trees, the contrast of light and dark, sunshine and shadows; cool in the shade, warm in the sunshine. The pine needles lining the forest floor release their musky wooded scent as I walk along.
Serendipity is sleek to the touch; like running fingers through the silky hairs of a favorite pet, or across the curved fender of an old car painted black.
The sound of serendipity as it rolls off the tongue brings to mind gentle rolling hills covered in fresh green grass, as far as the eye can see.
