the summer's bequest
dead withered leaves
and a wasp's nest
#vss365 #bequest #poetry

grey hair at 30
regular cramps
huge eyes and
wish I was taller

a tendency
to prefer
the peace of
a hermit

but at least
I love animals
and find it easy
to smile
at the wonder
of small things

thanks ancestors
for your #bequest of
mixed gifts

or is that messages

The king would #bequest his kingdom to any man who married his daughter. So it was to great surprise that she was kidnapped. Upon finding her, though, it was found that she wasn't abducted, but chose the man that would take her without a price. #vss365 #skywrite #microfiction

Next door’s cat was in Pip’s garden again, taunting him as he passed on the lead.

“Misty!” Pauline called over the fence. “Sorry, Carol. She prefers your place. I’ll have to #bequest her to you when I die.”

Carol laughed nervously.

Misty’s smirk said, “Hey, roomie!”

Pip howled. #vss365

The #bequest of the two headed dragon, cause of the great dispute between the Sisters Taminch and the city worthies, was doomed to remain for ever unresolved.

The legendarily quarrelsome heads reached agreement before the sisters, and abandoned the Selestine Park for the northern wild.

Gentle,
In eyes
Gentle,
Against the
The Titans
Bequesed strides

Gentle,
Is not for
Breath
Gentle,
Is not for
Tackling
The mask
To life.

Gentle,
Is for
The roughness
Of love
Gentle
For Life's
Blood
Gentle,
Is holding
A blade,
And still choosing
Branches of wood

"Forgotten Pool"

Turquoise bled into navy blue
It's been a long day today

The bristles on my beard ache
It's funny how the world fades

I #bequest all my possessions
To the man who plays a tune

He lifted oh the dullest days
Now I fall into a forgotten place

She wedded an old, rich man with no kin. After his death, she learned that he'd made no bequest to her. Instead, his sole heir was his cat.

My legacy, once coveted,
now lies by the wayside.
I will always be
who I sought to become:
an artist unfinished,
a painter
incomplete
a writer
of unwritten dreams
nothing to bequest

The day after the FCIS caught Tod at the border, Brit received a box with ‘My #Bequest’ written on it in blood. She opened the lid carefully and as she placed it on the table a fairy flew out and waved her wand at Brit who found herself encased within a glacier #vss365

Then he disappeared into a back room.

/Why does a museum have a receptionist?/ Overcome by her curiosity, she pulled open the door and stepped into the cool museum.

Half of the pictures and artifacts on display said they were here as the result of someone's #bequest. #vss365 #writing

"Your #bequest was an entire planet?"
"Yes, #Martinis all round!"
"This is truly your #moment. I hope the people living there don't end up making you #squirm, I hear they can be very... #forward."
"People live there?! I better cancel that new paint job!"

It was the old crone's dying wish to #bequest her few remaining possessions to the boy who was blind in one eye and deaf in one ear. An old knucklebone, a worn coin with a strange symbol and a whistle that didn't make any sound--that is but to him.

Uller stared at the floorboards and the smoothness on where judges over generations had shuffled over them. Sitting and reading on all hours. Making sure laws were upheld. He raised his eyes on the book which was a #bequest to him from Judge Morris. #vss365
