Friday Fictioneers for October 27th, 2023

For eleven years, Rochelle has been prodding fictioneer bloggers along with pics meant to inspire. That would be more than 570 Fridays to story. Thank you, Rochelle, the host with the most dependability.

Today she and Lisa Fox coordinated with a winter pastoral picture to stimulate our imaginations. So, we write on with between one and one-hundred words for Friday Fictioneers.

I enjoyed the Mama Cass video that Rochelle posted, and I decided to combine the two elements for a quickie #FF.

I was jamming.

“Creeque Alley” was blaring in my ears as I walked on a cold, crisp October day. I dug the snow, the fence, and my music. Wonderfulness!

I heard Michelle’s voice. “We never broke up. We just got lazy. Cass was the only one with any sense. Now everyone’s gone but me.”

I looked. No Michelle Phillips or Mama Cass—nobody. Just me and mighty fine folk music on a better day. I took the headset off and looked around.

I moved on—thinking, I knew she’d come eventually. But who can I tell about Michelle? Maybe Rochelle.

Look both ways to love the voices of the past.
Mind the gaps, but admit it, modern music “can’t go on indefinitely.”
