https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/08/19/your-daily-word-prompt-outlast-august-19-2019/ I’ve chatted about architecture on occasion and my love of many types designs and structures. Norman Foster once said, “Quality is an attitude of the mind.” He preferred “simplicity” of design while Frank Lloyd Write’s architecture was “organic”. I was introduced to their differing styles years ago and every now and again I take […]

Destruction
The company was sliding downhill into inevitable destruction without an upgrade in operations, and without an infusion of cash, there was no stopping the downward spiral.
Obstinate
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/08/12/your-daily-word-prompt-obstinate-august-12-2019/ Loki, our beautiful black german shedder (haha) had to have elbow surgery 3 days ago. He came home the next day, groggy and out of it due to the surgery and meds. He’s doing fine. For the most part, he’s groggy as all get out, but he’s able to eat and drink with no […]
Memorialize
Everyone had words of praise honour and humour for Eric Summers. He was an easy man to memorialize. His integrity stood the test of time. He showed respect consideration affection and gratitude to all around him.
Acquisitive
I’ve witnessed covetous greedy possessive behaviour but really, this took the cake.
Scribble
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/18/your-daily-word-prompt-scribble-july-18-2019/ Jean comforted herself in knowing that some of the greatest minds in the world would scribble notes on whatever was handy. Song writers were said to use napkins at a restaurant, even toilet paper while sitting in the john. It wasn’t as though she were forgetful or had a short memory, her mind was […]
Saga
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/16/your-daily-word-prompt-saga-july-16-2019/ Every time she considered reading a saga her first and only thought was why? Why the interest, why care? Sagas were boring, concerned a lifetime and lifestyle of people she’d never known and wasn’t the least bit interested in and she was even less interested in investing time and effort in reading absorbing or […]
Project
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/13/your-daily-word-prompt-project-july-13-2019/ Alex loved challenges, hell he lived for challenges. The new project that landed on his desk proposed to be a challenge on several fronts and he was eager to dig in and get started. Although his boss never set outlandish time limits on anyone, Alex usually set his own and always always reached his […]
Superior
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/12/your-daily-word-prompt-superior-july-12-2019/ Aaron was always on the look-out for superior craftsmanship. Purely by accident, he’d come upon a booth run by a woman, a jeweller who created the most phenomenal designs, beautiful, elegant, intricate, fashionable and truly spectacular. He’d been searching for her ever since he’d heard about her work and it seemed that she wasn’t […]
Inspire
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/11/your-daily-word-prompt-inspire-july-11-2019/ Before today, Joe had seemingly taken all the credit for his successes in life, whether work-related or on the home-front. Some considered him puffed up on pride and ego. His uncle, a man whom he admired and loved, who’d taken him in and given him a home, died of old age. While it wasn’t […]
Spectacular Artist!
Having heard this song so many times, I was not expecting to be moved to tears at Diana’s rendition. It was captivating, beautiful and touching! What incredible talent!
Activation
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/10/your-daily-word-prompt-activation-july-10-2019/ A nondescript voice announced, “Your activation has begun.” Foggy though I was, my brain still encapsulated in blankets of sleep‘s woven tendrils, I couldn’t figure out what was happening. Was I still dreaming? Was this real? Where the hell was I? Staring at the groups of people waiting expectantly around me, I looked into […]
Dilatory
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/09/your-daily-word-prompt-dilatory-july-9-2019/ He felt displaced. Unwelcome. Unwanted. Superfluous. Even if it was in his own mind. Thrown into an unknown time stream, he’d landed in an era far more advanced than his own. He tried desperately to fit in to catch up with current times but he was behind the eight ball and he was on […]
Behold
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/08/your-daily-word-prompt-behold-july-8-2019/ The fair was a sight to behold. Even having been involved from the ground up, participating in every stage of the creation of this event, Gordon took great pleasure in witnessing the fruition of his efforts. The park sparkled and shone with twinkle lights designed to attract participants. Old fashioned lighting used to highlight […]
Shut
https://onedailyprompt.wordpress.com/2019/07/07/your-daily-word-prompt-shut-july-7-2019/ “When one door shuts, another one opens.” That saying haunted him forever without meaning. He didn’t or hadn’t believed it, until recently. He’d bought a car one year ago and he knew it wasn’t a good deal, but he took it out of necessity. He was looking for a new car and found one. […]
