But the dreams that I dream, I don't do
Lost caverns are deep
High mountains are steep
Those conquests I've left up to you*
*The impracticality of the project is always the essence of my argument.
ABC Wednesday Prompt was D and

Dare; verb: Have the courage to do something or defy or challenge (someone) to do something.
Essence; noun: The intrinsic nature or indispensable quality of something, especially something abstract, which determines its character.
Practical; adjective: Of or concerned with the actual doing or use of something rather than with theory and ideas.
That's a good one Lilibeth. A lovely lilt to it.
ReplyDeleteBut, go on - give it a go. Where's that 'derring do'
Funny!
ReplyDeleteNot a brave bone, eh?
This reads so well, so good and so well written.
ReplyDeleteMaybe those adventures are best undertaken in a daydream..far safer..Jae ;)
ReplyDeleteHum maybe Jae is right... derring do is best undertaken in a day dream. The mountains I climb are small and well traveled. The caves I spelunk are guided and well-lit.
ReplyDeleteVery nicely said, Lilibeth.
