LWhat is the correct sentence? – Mini contest #5
Hello wonderful Steemians
I came across this wonderful contest topic "what is the correct sentence"? conducted by @pajewel. And it has made me crack my brain to come up with something meaningful, the words that was given for us to unscramble were
"Stone, company, with, stood, seabirds, lonely, like, sentinel, a, for, single, a, only, standing"
which are 14 words in numbers.
And I was able to come up with something.
"With a single stone sentinel standing lonely, only seabirds stood like a company for."
The expression ‘With a single stone sentinel standing lonely, It refers to a single stone placed with one end up, like a watchman, imagine a picture with a large stone standing upright maybe on a hill or along a shoreline. This imagery kind of has a sense of longevity somehow it makes one get an impression that the stone has always been there and has been a witness of time and the changes in its environment.
The "only seabirds stood like a company for" as this paints a picture of loneliness. Seabirds are particularly relevant for the rocky isles in the ocean, thus, the place where the stone has been found is considered deserted by other creatures. In expressing “with seabirds as its only company” concentrates on the loneliness of the stone as the birds are visitors to the island who come and go with the tide returns and migration.
The sentence above contains the theme of loneliness and becoming stronger as a result. Again, it forms a perfunctory structure in the middle of an extensive plain, which has the general appearance of a man. It is possible to regard this as a reflection of a person standing strong against loneliness or some adversities using personal resources only. The metaphor of the stone siting and watching can also be interpreted as guard and be loyal to certain place or experience it is lonely but does not care.
In conclusion the sentence above reflects the beaming and sorrowful essence of isolation in nature which emphasizes the noble idea of loneliness with the ability to stand still.
I will love to invite @mini80, @dexsyluz and @jasminemary to participate in this wonderful contest.
