A word prompt to get your creativity flowing this weekend. How you use the prompt is up to you. Write a piece of flash fiction, a poem, a chapter for your novel…anything you like. Or take the challenge below – there are no prizes – it’s not a competition but rather a fun writing exercise. If you want to share what you come up with, please leave a link to it in the comments. Thanks for hosting, Sammi.
Ruth was so concentrated on ripping out the vines creeping along the top of the cedar hedge, she never heard her son approach.

“What’s it look like I’m doing? I’m pulling out these vines.
“Why? They’re kinda pretty, no?
“I admit they are. I’ve never seen yellow ones like these. Usually, they’re those pink ones that look like morning glories.”
“Poor unwelcome flowers.”
“They’re weeds!”
“Tomayto, tomahto.”
“They’ll take over. Remember the ‘Rumor Weed’?”
