Cafe Writing, Option Two: Seven Things
From Miss Meliss:
In improvisation, one of our exercises is a game called “Seven Things,” in which we go around in a circle giving each other the challenge, “Give me seven things that [whatever].” We are not going to go around in a circle here, but if you’re drawn to lists, this prompt is for you.
Give me seven things that make you sigh. You are not required to provide any explanations, but it’s more interesting for readers if you do.
1. Not being able to breath makes me sigh…literally.
2. A windswept meadow after a rainstorm in summer.
3. Delicious food, perfectly arranged.
4. Puppy breath!
5. Taking a fantastic photo.
6. Love.
7. Paris.
Here’s a picture for you to enjoy:

Kisses from James. The first snow of the season. Catching the first buddings on the trees in spring. A good cup of coffee shared with a friend. When things all come together just as you imagined them. The beauty in someone’s smile. Secrets shared with a friend.

Great photo. I love how the chain is just a series of sparkles. What’s the necklace resting on?
February 3rd, 2008 at 7:58 pm
Sighing over that pendant…it’s breathtaking! An original, I presume. Very lovely.
Also, I sigh big time over puppy breath
February 3rd, 2008 at 11:09 pm
#6 and #7 definitely make me sigh. And I love that pic!

Oooh I’ve been a bad bad blogger and been absent. But I am back and started with your seven sighs to get back into the swing of things.
Hope you’re well!

I like this list, but sometimes, puppy breath makes me want to gag, not sigh. My boy is lovely, but he has rotten breath!!

1. a blanket, a book, and a cup of tea (all together).
2. knowing that “it” what ever “it” is will be OK

4. the power of the ocean
5. the right words said at the right moment
