Coming Home
Penny sobbed as the plane came into land, returning her son to the land of his birth.
Expecting the worse, the news had come as a shock.
Anticipating it, but never really thinking it would ever happen.
Cablegram read - PEACE declared – I’m coming home soon, Tom.
Everyone cheered as the troops descended from the plane.
I wrote this 55 in honour of Mimi’s Peace Globe movement to carry on the theme.
Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The object of the game is to write a story using exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.

I just saw this. I love it! It will go in the peace globe links page along with your new globe once I have it numbered. Wonderful ending. I, too, was afraid it would be the other way.

I wish all the troops will return to their respective homes & that Peace prevails in the entire world!
