By Ami (Gypsie) Offenbacher-Ferris

Response to Weekend Writing Prompt #246: This weekend your challenge is to write a poem or a piece of prose in exactly 51 words using the word Saunter.

What is it about a man’s walk that turns my own legs to jelly, sets my heart a flutter and keeps my eyes locked on his retreating form?

Not an arrogant, false or defensively combative saunter. It’s the natural saunter of a man who knows he’s a man. Oh yes!

    Oh yes, some of that nonchalant, confident saunter indeed.

    Is it the gait, or the derriere? 😉

    You like to see them leaving? Just kidding. I get it. It’s the gait. Mmhmm.

    I can’t say as that’s something overly noticed! 😉
