Céad míle fáilte! A hundred thousand welcomes seems a fit welcome to the week kicked off by Saint Patrick's Day. The four-leaf clover has been associated with luck. Today, write a little Flashy Fiction that involves a four-leaf clover or luck...or both.Maybe your story will take place in Ireland or a field of clover.
Bridget Clancy was a hearty lass, fair of complexion; pocked by the sun's warming rays. A freckled face beauty, her auburn tress framing God's tender masterpiece. Around her neck, a heart-shaped locket - a gift from a love long lost in the trenches of time. A loving vault carrying his picture and the four-leafed clover they had found in the fields where they learned life's forlorn lessons. She looks at his photo often. She rubs the good luck charm on occasion. And she keeps the locket with her always.
