TOPIC: Building Blocks

Use 3 or more words from each category within the context of the story of your choice. These categories/words are building blocks. I hope you have fun with this, I did!
I really look forward to seeing what you come up with. (I suggest copying and pasting the words into the header of your document, for easy reference.)

NOUN:
gate, alien, veil, safe, porch, jewel, barrel, cat, time, thunder, alibi, noise, snowflake, shard, book, towel, spy, lake, cave, rain, clock, street lamp, candle, boat, magic, pillow, chandelier, mop, drawer, secret panel, ring, curl, knife

VERB:
levitate, generate, miss, sigh, crumble, wiggle, promise, perceived, daring, curl, illuminate, gesture, splash, load, plummet, thrust, light, stumble, catapult, noise, spy, jab, lip, scamper, skid, pounce, nibble, hop, perceive, thundered, pummel, dump

ADJECTIVE:
massive, slushy, hooded, wild, crispy, melodious, alien, forbidden, safe, casual, noisily, deliberate, alleged, smelly, crisp, goopy, invisible, light, preposterous, witty, frizzy, generous, bouncy, rigid, flowery, giggly, quick, stealthy, wispy, delicate, supernatural

A FEW more thoughts:
It is appropriate to change the word or case of any or all of these words to fit your story better.
Example:
Candle: candles, candelabra, candlestick
Alien: alienated, aliens, extra-terrestrial
Knife: sword, dagger, shiv

Forgot to comment! forgot to say, thanks, but I already have too much to absorb. (It was already a challenge to wade through all those words, and REMEMBER what they were!)...(Am I getting old?)
