"Ivy"

     Last week in class, Professor indicated that he had seen a strange woman in the hall carrying a planter of ivy. He suggested we utilize his "sighting" as a writing prompt. I did, and he liked it. I wanted to share it with you:


                                                                             "Ivy"

I noticed her carrying a planter of ivy.

I started wondering where she was bound.

She was not someone I recognized.

I had never seen her around.

The grace of her gait intrigued me,

Soon compelling me to follow.

I found her appearance to be so alluring.

She was someone that I longed to know.

I followed her out through the commons,

Then, to my horror and disbelief,

She quickly exited and headed to her car.

She was an unlikely, potted plant thief!
