Environmental Epithets

============================================================================

One lives and learns!

A decade ago I learned that 'sultry' can be applied to 'beauty' (naturally a Bengali model-turned actress rhyming with Pipasha...so thirsty):

'sultry beauty'

(switch on the fan!)

Today there is a new and cherished addition to my environmental vocabulary:

'smokey voice'

Dhoop!

So I thought why not try a few of my own:

1. dusty ears

2. sooty brows

3. glacial speech

4. icy brain

5. snowy mind

6. breezy sight

7. stormy nose

8. sweaty lips

9. wavy busts

10. azure attitude

11. volcanic love

12. equatorial girth

13. alpine figure

14. saline mouth

15. oceanic temper

16. rainbow emotions

17. sunny idiocy

18. wintry lust

19. autumnal eyes

20. hazy intellect

21. hot legs

22. cold feet

*************************************************************************************************************

You may think I gave you only 22 phrases

No, there are 22 epithets and 22 nouns

These can occur in any combination:

e.g. 'icy lips', 'hazy speech', 'breezy attitude'...

So, if my math is ok, you have 22 x 22 = 484 phrases.

Take them...they are all yours...free!

They all mean the same thing...or nothing very bright.
