Microfiction Monday #22......


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.



“Prince Fabian I have a bad feeling about this” she whispered.


“Darling Esmeralda will you stop worrying,



Pegasus knows exactly how to land!”

    It wasn't Pegasus's landing that concerned her, it was her own! LOL!

    Good one!

    I studied the picture hard and came up with nothing. Then, when I saw your take on it I realised how easy it was. Wonder why I can't do it all by myself....grins

    Good advice Shrinky ;)

    I think you're right Quilly

    I guess you don't like flying Morning AJ?

    You should have a go Valerie, you're right it is easy.

    She's trusting him Anthony ;)


    I think the horse is the only one who actually knows what's happening Greyscale Territory!


    No parachutes unfortunately Jinksy ;)


    You could be right there South Lakes Mom.


    I thought so too Ellen :)

    I hope Pegasus isn't a Seahorse!! Women worry more I think because our imaginations work overtime -- especially on disasters --

    That's great advice to Esmeralda Pat :)

    Imagine looking up and seeing a flying horse Thom :0

    Indeed he is septembermom!

    LOL Daryl

    I would imagine so Hope :)

    One definitely wants a good landing Ms Daisy, whoever is responsible. ;)

    Why thankyou Pam, how kind you are.

    Thankyou Crystalchick, I'm so pleased you enjoyed it.

    Yes let's hope so SAW

    LOL it would be rather difficult for a seahorse to land wouldn't it Susan!

    You've got me worried about the horse's legs now Maggie :0

    Glad you have faith in him Debbie ;)

    I can understand that Tony! ;)

    Glad you like Cloudia x
