This weeks picture prompt from Microfiction Monday at Stony River
The task: a tweetable 140 characters or fewer inspired by the picture below...

She paid for the etching and took it home.
She had to buy it, nothing else had ever
come this close to summing up
the way she felt before.

I can relate. There have been times in my life when this picture would have summed things up perfectly.

My first try at a Micro-Fiction Monday is up.

nice when we find art that does that.Here's my 140. Sorry for the delay but dealing with drama of son having to dash across Italy to catch his flight. Hope your week goes better then his!

Susan at Stony River said...

That's thinking outside the usual - I love it! And now that you mention it, maybe I chose this photo simply because it looks like how I feel! LOL

SouthLakesMom said...

I love how your story is outside the picture. If I found that etching I might do the same...it is very provocative!

Very well done!

Michael G-G said...

Jim said...

It was for real. Good take, Susan.
Thank you for peeking in on mine.
