the beginning began like most any other as the gradual widdershins in the zephyrs decreased density had been unassumingly playing through Stoney Creeks woodwind passage when came a climactic moment from the tamarack section after which the lightning broke the progression of soft loquaciousness with a thundering crash the spell was fractured & a steady crescendi was flung aloof with an aching arctic force from the blasé of a sleepy frivolous north all within proceeding moments from the piqué rouse the lawn was covered with inches of freezing and in barbecues ice lay what was once my medium roast that I should now be eating Writing isn't just something I do, it's something I am. |

I like how you use such long and rhythmic words for something as mundane as looking at an unused grill -- a nice twist. |

Ah, honey, you can always make me smile on those endings! I liked this very much. Oh, yes, what a lovely zephyr on our mountain! |
