Series: The Golden Dress-3

Unusual youth...

A Story Quote to Inspire You

“It was made by a graceful old woman,
whose fingers were as lissome as ...”

—L.L. Barkat
 

Magical Prompt 3

The Golden Dress continues with a description of the dressmaker—a description that suggests she has an unusual youth (lissome means flexible, agile, deft).

Why do you suppose the woman maintains unusual youth, especially notable in her vocation as a seamstress? Write a story or a poem exploring why this old woman (or any other fictional older person) maintains unusual youth that’s notable in their vocation (seamstress, fisherman, farmer, whatever you like).
