Write Anyway – Lists

by Teri

The writing prompt from the weekend was to write two lists: one of beautiful things and one of ugly things. Here are mine:

Beautiful
Smiling children
Sleeping children
Running horses
Deer in the trees
Snow on the prairie
The smell of wood smoke
The smell of impending rain/storm
White twinkle lights at Christmas time
The first crocus of spring
Fall leaves
An eagle soaring on wind currents

Ugly
Butchering
Abandoned/falling down houses
Waiting rooms (hospital, clinic, etc.)
Sickness
Dirty dishes
War
The smell of dead animal (decay)
My messy desk
Dirty foot prints on a clean floor
Dying trees

What did you come up with for beautiful and ugly lists?
