Microfiction Monday #2



Susan at Stony River hosts this fun theme each Monday, so do pop over and read the others who have signed Mr. Linky. The rules are thus:


Every Monday Susan will post a picture for the subject of your story. Microfiction means the shortest of short stories. Think Aesop's fables, comic strips, or even jokes: complete stories that can be told in under a minute. For this game, the limit is a tweetable 140 characters or fewer, including punctuation and spaces.


Here's today's picture and my contribution.


Three buddhist priests were enjoying their visit to Washington DC,


especially when one of them declared

“Hey I found a four leaf clover!”

Stop and smell the roses, stop and discover the four-leaf clover. Living in the now can bring the most unexpected pleasures.

Unknown said...

How sweet! I hope he gets lots of good luck, that is a lot of lawn to search for clovers.

anthonynorth said...

Now that was lucky. Nicely done.

Peggy said...

Sweet is right, how nice to be so thrilled with the little things.
After reading left me with a smile.

Daryl said...

The Buddhist monks I've known were playful enough that they'd enjoy finding four-leafed clovers!

In D.C., that would be as big a miracle as a balanced budget. No, wait. There's a difference between dreams and fantasy. ;)

Travis Cody said...

Monk 1: He stepped in it, didn't he?

Monk 2: Yup.

Monk 1: Hey doofus! Didn't you hear me say to watch your step?

Monk 3: Wise a$$.

Monk 2: Nice. Now we have to go back to the hotel for fresh sandals before we tour the White House. Bonehead.

Misty DawnS said...

Hehe I like it. I must admit, my first thought was "What the heck did I just step in?"

Spiky Zora Jones said...

hehehehe...maybe they're making sure they don't step on dog poop too.

Commenting late, but better late than never, eh?

What a great idea to have a four-leaf clover. My 7-year-old son would agree with the monk: he's always on the look for one of those special clovers.

Have a great week.
