We had taken our first trip ever to Hawaii during the Halloween holiday. The weather was as usual in the upper 70’s this evening and I had just came out of the shower getting ready for dinner. In the kitchen was a note held in place by a paper clip and magnet on the refrigerator left by Desiree’. The note told me to meet her by the jack-0-lantern at the pool entrance. After getting dressed I left our room enjoying the wonderful outdoor sensory experience these islands are famous for, the smell of the ocean and sound of the wind through the palm fronds. Hurrying down the stairs for the pool, I couldn’t wait to see her in the dress we just purchased at Hilo Hattie’s, I proceeded to trip over that dang potted plant, for the second time that day. As I turned the corner I saw her, waiting were she said she would, her blond hair blowing in the wind and a beautiful butterfly just touching down on her outstretched hand.

Instead of the 5 random words, I rolled some (story dice). The dice came up with the picture of a Butterfly, Jack-o-lantern, potted flower/plant, paperclip and a palm tree one an island. My first thoughts went to my favorite place, Hawaii and my favorite woman, Desiree’. This story line took me a little longer than the three minutes I usually allow, more like 6 but I wanted to finish. I do miss her very much. More so after writing this knowing we will never be doing going there together again.
