Colourfication

Refreshing my attitude with a second amber shaded concoction, I made my conversational way through the proportionately correct number of jet and ivory faces this party required. This intuitively reminded me of why I hate parties. My sojourn took me into the garden for a delightful reprieve from the silver stodginess of the homes interior and its guests. Strolling its path, lined with lilac and ginger scented emerald flora, I happened onto the most mesmerizing soft sapphire eyes I have yet to have dreamt existed. The soft carnation color of her dress was in sharp contrast to the crimson coursing through my veins. I suddenly found reason to know why I love a good party... Colourfication Contest 03/12/2016

You have a unique voice here, subtle and keeps me intrigued ... love how your thoughts traveled from "hate" to "love" ... the right pretty face can change any man's mood. "proportionately correct number of black and white faces" ... I take it it was a PC party, with no one wanting to offend or discriminate? Sounds like today's world.

You are too kind. It was a fun write. Maybe too light to place. So many beautiful entries. Your comments are prize enough. Thanks, Charlie

Thanks Tom, probably not colorful enough to compete in the contest, but fun just the same.
