The Daily Post Prompt – Winsome
Winsome. This word gave me pause. I said it aloud and let it roll around on my tongue for a while. It is such an old-fashioned word, almost Victorian sounding to me. It means attractive; appealing in appearance or character; pleasant, delightful; suggesting a child-like charm.
It’s such a gentle word lost in the barrels of an ungentle, brutal world. I racked my brain for images. There are so many places across our lands I would describe as breathtaking, beautiful, stunning, magnificent, and majestic. Only a few images came to mind when I thought of this delightful word; the innocent, untarnished jewels of our existence.
I’d love to hear your comments. Talk to me. Tell me your story. I’m all ears and look for me on Facebook at SheilaMGood, Pinterest, Bloglovin, Twitter@sheilamgood, Contently, and Instagram. You can follow my reviews on Amazon and Goodreads.
I love that word. You captured it beautifully!

I think of my granddaughter’s puppy when he was first brought home. He was such a lover. 18 months later he’s still not very big, so still cute, and still a cuddler. Winsome.

The best thing to have next to you on a cold, winter day- unconditional puppy love.
