Surely it’s there. Decades have bloomed, withered and died, but my feet cannot forget the trail they trod so often with him. It should be there, the sapling we (but saplings ourselves then) had claimed with ugly, abecedarian scars.
But alas! I settle my arid bones upon the darling, decomposing stump.
It, too, is gone.

I've only been meaning to try my hand at 55 flash fiction for the past half a year now. Dang! It is not easy! 55 words is about two sentences, three or four if you keep 'em short. Hardly enough to tell a story. I challenge you all to give it a try if you haven't; it really forces you to be picky about word choice and burn the chaff. Post me a link when you're done! I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!
Peace, love, and sleep deficiency,

- I’m a small-town girl with sky-high optimism. Little orphan Annie got it right: you’re never fully dressed without a smile. I’m flexible as a slingshot except when it comes to my dream of being a writer. I’m a product of the 80s, loyal to the 90s; a born-again vegetarian with a weakness for buffalo chicken calzone; an advocate of peace, love, and chocolate chip cookies for all. I support green tea, green hair, and green energy. Most of all, I want to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life. Thank you for visiting my blog! I hope you enjoy your stay.
