Today’s Wordfull Wednesday Topic: Choose a letter of the alphabet. Pen a quick story about your typical summer day using as many words as you can that begin with your chosen letter. “A little alliteration lets the lesson linger longer!” (a line in a grammar poem from my eighth grade teacher)
Golden rays of sunshine gingerly grasp the mountains’ edge. The grey gloaming is gone giving way to ground garbed in the greenery of alfalfa.
Giant balers gorge themselves on grass and gush goliath-sized globs of hay.
Morning gleams, glares even, on a garden growing goodies ready to be gathered for grub.
My groom, covered in grease, and grit, and grime, grabs a quick lunch, grunts a gruff “Gracias,” and is gone, out to glean the gains of the day.
Afternoon drags, lags, a ghastly greenhouse of heat. Then giddy gloats of glee give way as geysers glide upward gifting us with relief.
Girls giggling in the grass greet the glistening evening sunlight,
while a gregarious little gentleman groups tractors like the grownups.
I gaze at the glowing embers of dusk, my heart filled with gladness and gratitude to God for the generous grace He grants each day.

That is awesome! I love it! I wish I had done one but I just didn’t have the time to get bloggy things done this time round. Too many things going on. Can’t wait to read some others too! 🙂
Carrie says
You did awesome! I tried…I really did, but I got nothin’. I can’t wait to see what other people come up with!!! This was a tough one for some reason…Maybe I will give it another shot….

Your alliteration story was great and I love that swimming bin for your kids–awesome! I had so much fun doing this, of course I always was a bit of a nerd!
Shauna says
Wow! What beautiful pictures! That was a very fun exercise to read through. I’ll have to try grunting a gracias too.

All in a day! That was fun. That poor gregarious gentleman with all you girls!
