Warmth

This is one short exercise that I did in intro to creative writing class. The professor wrote one sentence and we had to write a paragraph with it. Here is what I came up with.

When summer broke open like an egg yolk Minnesota was in her rear view mirror. Fortunately for me, Minnesota was also in mine. I drove south in search of what people from out of state call “Warmth”. My hopes were to also find a good omelet. I learned that summer can be easy to find but a good cooked egg is hard to come by.
