I always read the ideas on Mindlovemisery’s Menagerie but never get round to doing them in time, so today I’ve pulled my finger out so I can play the game (I think those metaphors together may be dubious, but I’ll keep on).
This is for prompt 2
In 25 words or less, write a story (beginning, middle, and end) about what’s happening in this photograph.
So my brief story:
The tree reminded her of her mother, a dramatic and looming presence, and she always worked harder beneath its stern gaze.

Welcome to the MLMM playground. Although I’m not the official host for this prompt, I’m a long-standing resident and inmate 😉
See, it’s fun to just slip in and play 🙂
Great image and wonderful micro flash!

PS: There is no time limit on Tale Weaver or flash fiction prompts — so if the inspiration hits you two weeks later, write away. There is no past due date.

So beautiful to associate this picture with family ties. When I read mother I always think of legacy and home.
