Today’s word is TREE.
Sonia looked up as a strong gust of wind rustled the fronds of a large palm TREE next to the traffic light. Sonia shoved me away from the curb and screamed, “Look out, Holly!”
Joan grabbed my arm and pulled me out of traffic as a coconut dropped from the top of the palm TREE.
Joan clutched her hands over her heart and gasped. “Holy guacamole! That was close.”
Hope slapped her cheeks. “My God, Holly! If not for Sonia’s quick reaction, your head would be smashed to smithereens.”
Sonia held her index finger over her thumb. “You came this close to being killed.”
Queenie grinned. “Talk about a novel way to go out…Death by Coconut.”
Little did any of us realize how prophetic Queenie’s quip would turn out to be.
