Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

Today is Thursday, better known, in some circles as, the-day-we-write-stories-that-have-only-six-sentences-but-in-all-likelihood-exposes-to-those-perceptive-enough-some-part of-our-own-lives-that-even-as-the-writer-may-not-even-be-aware-of Day!  aka, Six Sentence Stories, hosted by zoe/ivy! Pull up a chair and enjoy a writer’s version of speed dating.

(for something a little different this week).  ‘Grave’

Peace.

The ground, opened with care, to receive earthly remains.

Saying goodbyes, to those who can be seen and heard, by one who may no longer be able to see or be heard.

A change to the most fundamental of things, like the rising and setting of the sun, the love of child and parent, the healthy body falters and fails.

Growing with life, discovering the world and what it can be,  adds to what one is, love and hate, family and friends.

Sudden forces of life and air, expulsion from quiet safety.

Peace.

Well, what exactly do you want to know? Whether I am a clark or a scott or roger? If you have to ask, then you need to keep reading the Posts for two reasons: a)to get a clear enough understanding to be able to make the determination of which type I am and 2) to realize that by definition I am all three.* *which is true for you as well, all three...but mostly one

    This is a beautiful description of the circle of life. Zoe has got us all supernatural and philosophical and emotional here today with Grave.

    Lovely.that expulsion from the quiet and safety is often the story of those left behind as well… I suspect its a universal thing…or maybe i just want to think that. Thanks for liking in, Clark!

  3. When I reach that day, I’d want it to be this way, Clark.

    I have never read writing in this style from you, Clark. I enjoyed it.

  5. I second the amycake!
    From the perspective of the dead….from the dying…..from the living.
    Life IS one giant mobius strip….

    I like to think that what little we take with us will be things like love, concern, friendship and caring. None weigh heavy or cost a cent so they easily fit in carry on luggage.

      lol…. yeah (like the Beatles sang ‘the love you take is equal to the love you make’) which with a size 6 paraphraser, totally agrees with this

  7. I really liked this, it left me breathless.

    What stuck with me is when you wrote “by one who may no longer be able to see or be heard.” MAY. Certainly something to think about! Nice work!
