As you sow, so shall you reap

Lee is three years old

ear stud for his birthday gift

but smile kept inside.

He’s knows to be a brave little

soldier. He ain’t a sissy.

 

Lee is twenty-one,

a bullet wound drains away

the smile kept inside -

a touch the first and last

he wanted for his birthday.

This blog was inspired by First 50 words where you freewrite from a single word prompt. I use random words or images to create flash fiction in formats ranging from twitter postcards to short short stories.
