888 - Less than Radiant


Three Word Wednesday requires participants
to use the three words of the week in a composition.
The words this week are: radiant, painstaking, queasy.


Less than Radiant

Late night souvlaki
An easy meal, going home,
Nothing painstaking.


Three in the morning,
That queasy feeling inside—
A sense of unease.


A white toilet bowl
Being closely examined.
Odd brand: Radiant.

  4. It took me a while to figure out what I was seeing in the picture! I think you enjoy delivering the unexpected.

  5. I puzzled over the picture too. All too familiar with that queasy feeling (shouldnt that be a song?) LOL.

  9. Uh oh!
    You know, I find the brand names of bathroom items interesting. So many opportunities to visit the name of the company that makes the toilet paper dispenser, for example. And then (in my case, anyway) the intriguing word is forgotten until the next visit.
