This meme was started by Delores a long time ago. Troubles led her to bow out, but the meme was too much fun to let go, and now Words for Wednesday is provided by a number of people and has become a movable feast. With Elephant's Child as our coordinator.
Essentially the aim of this meme is to encourage us to write. Each week we are given some prompts. These prompts can be words, phrases, music or images.
What we do with those prompts is up to us: a short story, prose, a song, a poem, or treating them with ignore...
We can use some or all of the prompts, and mixing and matching is encouraged.
Some of us put our creation in comments on the post, and others post on their own blog. This fun meme includes cheering on the other participants.
And the more the merrier goes here as well, so if you are posting on your own blog then please tell us in the comments, so that all other participants, can come along and applaud.

And/or this photo:
EC’s life was humdrum. As a very ordinary citizen with no power, she felt hapless and hopeless in the current troubled times. She hoped (fervently) that the righteous would win, but it looked like a long and bloody battle with no guarantees. She looked up at the delicate filigree of tiny branches against the over arching grey sky and smiled. Those twigs were puny in comparison to the entire tree, but they had a quirky beauty all of their own. Today, she was going to take them as an omen, and refuse to despair…
SvarSletOnce again you see me stunned with admiration, Sue.

SletElephant's Child: Those are the my exact thoughts, well, not completely, but it sounds like something I would think of.
SletHave a lovely day.
Working on it.
SvarSletMy story is over here.
SletI like the picture, although it looks gloomy, it looks lot like my sky here just now, grey and rainy with bare branch trees.
SvarSletYou have done a great job with June prompts. I will hopefully get my story posted soon.
SvarSletLate again. I don't know what happened but somehow I can never be on time or keep it short.
SvarSletHere's my take on the prompt: Fiction: The Girl & The Merboy.
Thank you for the words.
Have a lovely day.
