clouds drifted winds rustled through the sky rain was falling the trees wispered the same lie let it rain, they cried, the sun was fading away, and the sky stood still, And begged the sun to stay This challenge forbade the use of adjetives. (shudders) the Wind is invisible. remeber me [This message has been edited by Wind (03-03-2003 06:28 PM).] |

Great job, Wind. Writing without adjectives does seem like a daunting (oops) challenge. You've met the challenge well. |

Absolutely FANTASTIC!!! Barring adjectives didn't bar your descriptiveness one iota! Excellent!! Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

Well done! Shamed me in my inadequacy - and rightly so! Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn. |

wow! I thought this was really good.. and then I read the challenge and now I think its even better! As long as you don't inclue articles as adjectives. That'd be impossible, though I'd have thought this would be anyway. Like I said, WOW! Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |

Good job! I especially like the title, in connection to the challenge itself (not being able to describe the sky, with adjectives at least.) I also like the line "The trees whisper the same lie." That's what we, as heroes, do. We live as if the world were like it should be, to show the world what it could be. |
