NEW, never worn, wedding gown – $900 OBO
Strapless, mermaid style with sweetheart neckline. Chapel train. Organza with tulle overlay, extensive beading and hand-embroidered lace.
One of a kind, custom-made… like I thought our love was. Double stitched throughout, while our relationship fell apart at the seams.
Heirloom veil is also available – sheer, antique tatted Irish lace. I should have seen what was coming, but my eyes were veiled from the truth.
A church is also booked, but couple would have to schedule own event around set date. It’s the old white one on Grey Street.
Motivated seller.
100 Word Song, a writing challenge from Lance based on a weekly music prompt. Give 100 words, not 99, not 101. This week’s challenge is inspired by Dave Matthews Band, “Grey Street.”
I love how you’ve done something completely different with the prompt. Mixing the analogy with the want ad, I can feel what the owners bitterness and regret.
This is one of the best 100 I’ve ever read. No lie.
Tara, I really enjoyed this one! So good.
Awesome. Absolute Awesomeness
sigh.
I just loved every analogy, every thought back to what she thought..”Was” , it’s always like that isn’t it, when we are at the end, looking back and wondering what the hell happened? This is actually one of my favorites of your stuff, it was beautiful and sad all at once, your words jumped right off the page and sat on my heart.
I love the comparison of the stitching of the dress and the unraveling of their relationship. Your stuff is always so strong.
Aww!
Tara, I love the way you wove double meanings into each portion of this story. My favorite is “Double stitched throughout, while our relationship fell apart at the seams.” it says so much, with so few words. Love it!
This is another Tar Rah example of what’s NOT written is as strong as what is written.
Motivated by what? a lot…that’s what
Love this! I was too dumb to walk away from my first wedding because I already had the dress with the ripping seams. Though I did take a OBO four months later :)
