Awe...Happiness...Silence

Postlude to a Top Story

So... you got your first TOP STORY

It sure feels like that feeling of a gorgeous, fresh new hairstyle

Lovely colors burst forth from your comely couture'd pyche

Everyone stares as your beauty shines forth magnificently

Now the accolades pour forth, wolf whistles and 'hey girl' abound

Cotton candy bubbles fill your lungs with sweet anticipation of more

Except...the tintinnabulation prelude becomes a postlude to deafening SILENCE.........
