Drabble #50: Hope in Those Squeaky Clean Eyes
...we had several delightful responses for the lyrics drabble prompt of Drabble 49, with entries by me (your intrepid drabble proposer jalenstrix), the dazzling tmwillson3, and the magnificent my_quorum.
And of course, we were greatly bolstered by the commenting love of the labyfic collective, represented this past month by tmwillson3, my_quorum, me,
I adore you, my drabbling and drabble-supporting labyficcers! You rock.
Inspired by suggestions from my_quorum, I offer another lyric snippet from Bowie's Teenage Wildlife (performed here):
Blue skies above
and sun on your arms
strength in your stride
And hope in those squeaky clean eyes
Squeaky clean eyes, eh? Do tell.
Let's continue with the 250 word limit for this month. (But remember: 250 is the limit, not the requirement! Feel free to grace us with shorter pieces as the fancy strikes you. :) )

I'll aim to get the next drabble challenge out on the first Friday of next month (December 2).
I'm also very happy to take suggestions if something in particular strikes your fancy -- comment on this post or PM me with your suggestions. You can see our current collected suggestions here.
Remember: Feedback is LOVE. So do reply to your fellow labyficcers' drabbles if so inclined. (Though be careful of concrit unless specifically okayed by the author beforehand.)
