Sandwiched in between
days
weeks
months
years.
Are pressed together
lives
dreams
successes
failures.
We follow, one after the other
trading places
sharing the lead
arm in arm
as one.
You and me.
Yes. This is really what he is like, and it is just one of the reasons I love him.
I have been watching my friend Kir participate in Trfecta for awhile now. Today I decided to finally join in.
This weekend we are giving you three variations on a prompt. We need you to give us 33 words back, and 2 of those words must be either “cheap flights,” “sandwiched in” or “spectacularly clean.” This weekend, your piece must also be non-fiction (poetry or prose). And yes, we reserve the right to call your mothers and former lovers to ask for verification on your tales.
Trifecta offers creative writing prompts if you are looking for idea or just want to stretch your writing muscles.
This is so sweet! Love it.
How great to include a photograph. What fun.
Thanks. I try to include photos with all of my posts.
This is lovely!
Thank you.
Aww you two look and sound like a great couple! (: Lovely piece.
Awww. Thanks. We’ve been together a LONG time.
Welcome to Trifecta! So glad you joined. This is a lovely entry. I like the flow and the structure! And I *love* the photo!
Thanks. That photo truly captures his personality.
This one’s a stunner.
Awww. Thanks.
Lovely, Strong, and Sweet.
Much like you.
So sweet and just rings of love and a long and strong partnership

Thanks. We’ve been together a REALLY long time.
I love that third stanza in particular – beautiful! And oh my goodness, his expression keeps cracking me up. Welcome to Trifecta. It’s a great place to hang out.
Imagine living with that. LOL Of course one of the reasons I love him is that he always makes me laugh.
Funny back story on the photo. I had my camera set up on the tripod, and I let my four year old push the button for me. He saw his dad doing this and never game him away until after the photo was snapped.
What a fun post!!! And lovely pic of you two!
Thanks. I took this after I realized I haven’t taken a photo of the two of us together in almost two years.
This is nice – I love the partnership you describe. And your picture? Priceless.
I will cherish this photo forever.
Welcome to Trifecta! Thanks for linking up. I love your response. Truth is, I love any well-told tale of happy marriages/partnerships. Your guy looks like a younger version of my father-in-law. (Which is a compliment.)
I love those types of stories too. It is nice to be living one. If that doesn’t sound too corny.
Welcome to Trifecta! This was lovely, and I love the accompanying photo.
So sweet… the comfort of a long relationship. I like the structure of your poem.
Beautifully done! Love it.
I love it!
Great pictures of you guys!
I really love the words in the 3rd stanza. Makes for a good partnership/marriage. And that photo is PRICELESS.
