Trifecta wants us to give them a 33-word
example of personification. Here it is defined in case we've forgotten our English 101, which is entirely possible. It's the practice
of attaching human traits and characteristics with inanimate objects, phenomena
and animals (http://literary-devices.com).
Worn like a snug, little, black dress.
Dressed down in
Jeans, white tee, flip-flops.
Their colors...
Black
White
Gray
Stylishly told
Always.
Watching her true-mirrored reflection
Wearing them believably.

So much to choose from, what to pick!
Pick the little red dress! lol
I have used this comment before but it really applies here...........I am amazed by writers who pack sooooooo much story, so much emotion, so many layers of meaning into a mere 33 words! Incredibly good writing.
Stylishly told, always - nice :D
ahhh, Gina . . . so much, so much
I like how you used the shape of the poem to give more meaning to your words as well.
Visual presentation matters, at least with this post! Beautiful job, as always!
choose..the shoes...I am a real fan of this minimalist poetry, I must say.
Ohh! I absolutely love this!
I like the structure of this poem. Nicely done!
That's very cool, Gina. I don't think I have the discipline to do something like that. Well done!
What a show! And yet, the little black dress can never go wrong!
A classic, like that little black dress.
Nice! Between the structure and the language, you've created an excellent piece!
I know, right? Choices!
Oooohhhh! Red, the scandalous one! Should have used that color too.
Tom, thank you so much for your enthusiastic comment. I really appreciate it. You are right. It's hard to tell a story in so few words. Love the challenge.
Thank you, Dawn!
So thankful you liked it, Barbara!
I sure hope it did. That's what I attempted to do so thank you for noticing, Kristin.
Everything needs to look visually pleasing ;-) I appreciate your kind words, Tina!
Managua, You don't even know what a complete nut I am over shoes. I would choose shoes any day over almost any fashion item. I like minimalist poetry as well. Thank you for commenting.
Yeaaaaaaaa!!!!!
I appreciate you comment, Janna!
Well, thanks! You don't have the discipline to tell a story in 33 words? Oh yes you do. I know you can.
I'm partial to jeans myself but when in doubt, wear the little black dress!
Thank you Stephanie.
Thank you for such a wonderful compliment. I really appreciate it.
Flash Fiction at its best! WEll done, GINA!
Elegantly done. Liked it.
Pretty poem. Visually and otherwise.
I appreciate your enthusiastic comment, Michael. It was fun to write for sure.
Thanks, Sandra!
I love these 33 word responses, so many great stuff with just 33 words! Great stuff here!
I bet your in the tee, flip flops and jeans in sunny Fl. Great snappy poem. Btw, were not all old in Fl!
Whatever you wear, do it believably! Great poem.
Thanks Kim. They are fun yet tricky.
Exactly! Weather was a beaut today. Naples = Old people though. I've heard Tampa is different.
Thanks.
Lies are dressed all different ways. Thanks.
