Saturday Centus 15 October 2011 - A Literary Device Challenge

THIS IS A SATURDAY CENTUS POST, 

...and it's brought to you today by:  Ms Jenny from "Off on my tangent" and Jenny is offering us such a sweet and exciting challenge for this week's centus.  No photos of our own, please.  But, by using this photo we shall weave a tale of sensory details.....in what ever tasty manner possible....are you seeing red yet?  No way...this is gonna be fun...fun...and more fun! 

But first, feast your eyes on this theme photo ....


This is Jenny's prompt photo for this Saturday Centus exercise of Sensory Details


         Townsfolk saw Grandpa’s hideaway as a depressing eyesore bursting with dust and disuse. Not me or this wild turkey strutting sheepishly around that gaping hole of rotting wood. They mostly whined about the foul odor from ripe earthworms and moldy straw spawning a bitter tang everywhere.




Yet my nose tickled from cherry tobacco and wood-smoke.


Suddenly, a bone-rattling thump ruffled this turkey’s feathers and he flew off and dropped into a bed of putrid leaves. I stretched my ears once the eerie thumping silenced and thought I heard the pitter-patter of feet romping through the house, just once more.


Jenny offers this Literary Device Challenge to any and all of us who care to share our words (no more than 100) and if you don't know how to get there already...try this
