Microfiction Monday #36


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.


Here's today's picture and my contribution.


 

Iron man you have to let me go.



They’re coming for you, you won’t stand a chance!



Go now, I’ll find you when it’s safe.



Hey did I tell you I can see right up your nose from here?


140 characters including punctuation and spaces

    Hmmmm...I must say I expected it to be a bit more romantic than that.

    Btw, romance is in the air over at The Farm
