​Flash Spotlight words given at the September meeting were: excited, blistering, label, dumb, blame

                                               Hot Walk, Nancy Forbis-Stokes

Excited by the cool, cloudy morning, Sophie pocketed sunscreen for a run.  Suddenly, the sun came blistering out.  Sophie retrieved the sunscreen and noted on the label that its potency had expired.  She blamed her rush to get outside for her dumb mistake.  "Calories shed; sunburn gained," she signed. 

              A Limerick, Linda Gordon

There was once a dumb bum of some fame

Who seemed delighted and excited to claim

The rather blistering label

Of a man most unstable

Then sue himself for slanderous blame
