Microfiction Monday #51 ~ where a picture paints 140 characters, or even fewer. Susan says:
Photos will be from my own archives; illustrations are from Dover Publications' free clipart sample newsletter.

He wasn't the prince of her dreams.
His pointy beard was mean
And his long nose was devious.
But his winged horse tuned to her spirit...

Oh, to be captivated by a winged horse - I hope she won't regret her decision.
Yes, I think I too could be swayed by a winged horse!
The winged horse would be a draw for me, too.
Ah...what we are often willing to put up with in order to have the other thing we really want. Advice for the princess - eventually the part you didn't want will drive you mad!
nicely done, quite pensive (which is always a good thing)
A winged horse would more than make up for a pointy beard and a long nose. ;)
I think if you're going to be captivated by anything, it would be that horse! Beautifully written.
Well in our day it's a nice condo and a red sports car.
Well done!
Sounds as if He is a Horse of a Different Colour.
Well a winged horse is definitely preferable to pointy beard and a long nose or even a long beard and a pointy nose! Now if she just doesn't get tired of having to clean the stable! Great one for the day, Gemma!
Enjoy your week!

She sounds like a woman who thinks and knows what she likes! Good for her!
the winged horse would make up for a lot of sins... wait, what am I saying?? :) - nice MM!
what mortal can best
a winged horse?
Nice MM.
Ah, so she was a pragmatist--she tolerated his meanness and deviousness for what she could get from him. Sometimes that works...in a loveless relationship.
I like your take on this week's picture!
And she married him totally unaware that he'd borrowed the horse. Serves her right.
The winged horse would be an enticement!
I get the feeling this guy will soon be dumped for his horse. :)
It would do it for me as well :) Great story :)
Well sometimes girls are turned on by the guy's ride. wink*
Now that horse has REALLY captured my imagination, I love what you did with this! Lots to wonder about --
I'm always glad you've played!
so she likes him for his horse... kind of shallow, don't you think?? lol
this was a fun one!
Glad she's looking on the bright side LOL! :O)
