“Inherit”

Definition:

I have inherited 

                        my blue eyes from my father,

                      black hair from my mother.

   my lips sing melodious strains.

        the strokes of my brush,
      
       aroma of strawberry crush

      are all cultivated by me.

     my kids will inherit 

     their own-self.

                                 

House hunting woes

                                                           Purple wall by dancsec

After sniffing the odour of the paint, my nose cringed at the colour of the walls.

Even the lampshade was painted with the same brush.

"The apartment rent is rock-bottom er Miss........."

"Miss Purple . Do i have a choice?"

Detective

The Grammar Ghoul Press has asked writers this week, in exactly 39 words, to write a story
or poem using

 Trenchant:

1 : keen, sharp

Trace:

a path, trail, or road made by the passage of animals, people; also : footprint

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The downpour had washed away clues that ordinary mortals

could perceive.

But Nature has a way of preserving the inevitable,

a trace.

Feluda's trenchant pupils scanned the wet ground. 

Confession spouted from gardener's limp.

Buried weapon unearthed the murderer.

Alert cop

Being branded a fart by his superiors, he was desperate to prove otherwise.

The innocuous object looked out of place in a children's park.

He picked it and flung it. 

The thermometer exploded, reflecting a fire-ball on lake surface.
