Boudoir Bavardage

fuelled elaborate lie with friends of ventures
                       with boy I barely knew
 




All girls' school... Poor deprived fourteen year olds we were! Group of girls hung vicariously on my riveting ridiculous stories.  I think I gained status by telling fanciful fibs.... Blessed, these simple times before social media mayhem ....!

Sam Kauffman Date: 9/9/2020 5:45:00 PM Sigrid, I suspected you went to an all girls school - don't know why? Me too! Your monoku brings back memories of sleepovers and tall tales! Congratulations on your first place win! So fun! Login to Reply Sigrid Ermine Date: 9/10/2020 5:37:00 AM Oh wow!.. Yeah, Hobart oddly has a state (public) single gender school. Where do you live, Sam?

Howard Kerr Date: 9/9/2020 3:43:00 AM Congratulations Sigrid on your win. Impressive entry. With regard to my contest submission I was usually quite good at school. Grade C would be quite poor for someone capable of much higher marks. I’m duty bound to share that with you. We both value honesty as a trait. Back to your work, the narrative is second to none Howard Login to Reply Sigrid Ermine Date: 9/10/2020 5:32:00 AM That's right. The soul always knows if dishonesty is taking place. Ta for visit, Howard

Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 9/2/2020 1:45:00 AM - Today everything spreads like a fierce virus ... before it went from mouth to mouth ... I have never been on facebook ... probably "the only one in the world" :)))) - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Login to Reply Sigrid Ermine Date: 9/2/2020 3:06:00 AM That's really cool that you're not. I barely used it, started to look at it too much. Shut down account last month. There's such a good community here, likeminded folk. Who needs FB!?
