I feel it lends to photographs and paintings as well as written work. Looking forward to what you come up with next week.



















Lyrical Sunday Contributors

As the Linky-thingy is still being a bum and not letting people see who has written and linked up, here are links to the wonderful offerings this week.

Memories of a girl I never met - Lien
Memory - Sarah
A trip down Memory Lane - Jess
Memory - Lea

If you do visit, leave a comment as they have put in a lot of effort and emotion into their work. If you are inspired to join in this week, the new prompt will go up tomorrow morning.
