“Wishes…”
This entry is in response to Trifextra weekend challenge which asked for 33 words of our own, inspired by the following quote:
“It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.” ― Paulo Coelho
It had been a painful time.
‘Neath the erupting canopy, strains of “Wishes..” seeped into her brain.
Suddenly, impulsively, he squeezed her hand.
As a silent tear escaped, she knew they’d be okay.

Thanks, Kathleen. WDW has been our vacation spot, home away from home, for years, since my kids were toddlers. And now we go with the kids and their kids and stay I the same rooms with the same view…it does feel as if this little piece of the Poly belongs to us. I hope you had fun with you term paper.

Yes, and seldom handed to one on a silver platter. You merely need to know that which is worth working for or fighting for. Thanks for your comments.
