The simplest gestures

Shared in love and affection

Memories remain

Angels live within our hearts

In quiet moments of peace

The photo for this week’s prompt shows a little figurine given to me by my son and a little wooden donkey that is part of a Nativity set my mother gave me long ago. He features in a short story I wrote a few years ago… re-reading it still brought a tear to my eye, as so many of her memories are my own. I called it Christmas Lights and you can read it here.

Thank you to everyone who took part, visited or reblogged the posts or left comments for their authors.

A new prompt will be published later today. As always, I will reblog as many contributions as space and time allows as they come in… and all of them will be featured in the round-up next Thursday.

All the posts are listed below, so please click on the links below to read them and leave a comment for the author!

Pingbacks do not always come through… if you have written a post for this challenge and it does not appear in the round-up, please leave a link to your post in the comments and I will add it to the list.

An invitation to writephoto writers…

As there are usually too many contributions to reblog all of them every week, and so that we can get to know their writers, I would like to invite all writephoto writers to come and introduce themselves on the blog as my guest! Click here for details.

Come and join in!

Thank you to all Contributors… please click the links to read and comment on the author’s site.
