Hey Folks – Hope you all are having a great Sunday. Once again I tried taking three different attempts to the word Prodigal. I am summarizing them below. Let me know your thoughts
First Take – Prodigal
The classic paradigm of having enough dough –
should we be prodigals,
or should we consider
becoming a thrift spender
worrying about some future stormy gale
Second Take – Prodigality
If we can show our prodigality and extravaganzas on helping the less privileged one, the world will inch towards a better place to coexist
Third Take – Prodigality was Insignificant
She flaunted her Hermes bag
with a sense of pride
And let her Baccarat perfume
wore her long slender neck
making everyone run wild
The Givenchy gown graced her demeanor
giving her appearance
a shade above some divine touch
The Argyle pear cut ring pink glare
was dwarfing any other shades
that existed in the bright or the twilight
She was an allure,
an occult,
an epitome of seraphic grace
Yet despite such display of extravaganzas
the prodigality remaining insignificant,
for the world never took notice of anything
but her elegant ethereal presence

Loved the way you have approached the prompts. But I have a different thought of finishing the last one.
GO ahead and provide your thoughts
OK, I would rather see the protagonist as a materialistic person.who indulges in the worldly possessions than carrying a beautiful heart.
I know, that was an obvious choice – so thought to give it a twist
Oh see now I get it.Thanks for explaining.
no worries 😊🌸
I loved your take (or rather all your takes!)☺️
Thanks so much dear Rich ❤️
