55fff

Flash 55 is hosted by G-Man (Mr. Knowitall). Click the picture above or that link for more information. The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-Man know when you’ve posted your 55. Thanks G-Man for hosting.

THE VIEW

The lights, hung high above, sparkled down showcasing the stunning beauty.
Her features were like none other.
Soft and Elegant.
Strong and Hard.
Her lines symmetrical to her curves.
Her curves highlighting the bold lines.
Her eyes glistening. Capturing her audience with her adoring stare.
She went by the name of Tahoe.
A beautiful Chevrolet.

Have a viewing 55 Friday

Hey, it’s only my opinion.

A Hui Hou

  1. Now that’s one intriguing vehicle :-)
    Nicely done.

  2. exquisite poem . . . for a Tahoe. I think only a guy could write a love poem to a car, but I may be wrong! Even so, it is well done!

  3. Perfect descriptions for such an odd vehicle. Wow, the things people can cook up with their home grown ingenuity, turning a cab into a animal drawn cart.

    My 55 is The Schedule

    • LOL…the picture was just something funny to add in LOL. Didn’t match I know but I thought what the hell LOL. Glad you liked. :)

  4. Are you car shopping? Or just admiring the view while you’re working? Men and cars…

    :)

    Flash 55 – Earthquake

    One Single Impression – Running

    • I’m always car shopping. I want a Hybrid Tahoe so bad I can’t see straight. But when it comes to the pocket book…well hence I write and dream LOL :)

  5. smiles. tahoes are nice…i miss my xterra since the wreck…

  6. sorry, nice 55 as well. love the pic…that would be quite teh sight to see…

    my 55 is up!

  7. Protection from the rain, no doubt. Fun photo and 55. My 55 is here .

  8. Poor beast. That must be heavier than pulling a regular wooden cart. But thank God you made creative fiction to go with it :-)

    • Yeah the picture was just funny. That’s the only reason I added it. I wonder how much heavier than a wooden cart it really is? It’s just the frame it looks like to me :)

      • Oh yeah, you’re right, Thom it’s just the frame. But I still laugh everytime I remember it from among shots of a Mercedes Maybach where they tell readers to stop dreaming and get back to work, be thankful with what you got. And then comes that photo. :-)
        .-= Hazel´s last blog ..When a woman lies =-.

  9. too funny, yet vivid and realistic. i mean, would a woman write a love poem about a car? okay, maybe a few.

    i’m still smiling,

  10. Was a Tahoe your first car Thom? I read some ‘love’ in your 55 words. :)

  11. Thom, I feel like I know you through Susan’s blog (the Susan at Stony River). Love your description of the car, and of course the photo. Nice!!


    Here’s mine.

  12. Geez, This was about a CAR? I thought you were talking about the wonderful animal here. LOL

    My 2fwe is here: Shirt Tales

  13. If that’s a Chevy, then I’m an International Harvester.

    Good surprise end on your 55.

  14. ROFL
    Oh, that was so you.

    Can’t imagine seeing that vehicle for the first time while on drugs of some kind. I’d think I was on another planet–

    Uranus maybe.

  15. ROFLMAO – when i saw the picture!
    great 55 which i have a little trouble relating to (split infinitive intended) :)

  16. LOL! I love that Mexican SUV. Too funny. Have you driven a Chevy Tahoe? If I could get someone else to pay for the gas, I’d buy one. Oh wait. I might need someone else to make the payments, too!

  17. Sometimes you write such “nice” or just interesting things…and then I get distracted by the pictures you come up with!!! Too much

  18. That looks more like Toyota!
    Excellent 55 Brotha.
    Whimsy fits you quite well.
    Thanks for the smile.
    Thanks for playing today,
    And have a Kick Ass Week-End…G

  19. That’s the loveliest poem dedicated to a truck that I have ever read! I hope you two will be very happy!

  20. I can understand, a man thinking about a car in that way :)

  21. Here I am, picturing this magnificent women, when lo! The picture comes up! Too funny.

    My post is up here.
