Flash | I Don’t Remember

July 28, 2017 By Clinton Leave a Comment

Rain by Varguy on DeviantArt   “I Don’t Remember” Rain pounded the forest floor. Fat drops played a melodious song against hollow logs.  Wind whistled along in time. Streams of water gurgled while running through runnels in bark and between mud tracks. Behind nature’s music tiny amusement watched and listened. The rat-a-tat-tat-whoosh-shush of the forest’s […]

Unusual date by Uruczek from DeviantArt “Date Crasher” “Don’t tell me you’re quitting?” Barbra teased.

Tree swing by t1na on DeviantArt “Swing at Sunset” Gustin and Eva ran along the dirt path. Their feet finding familiar footing. Sure. True. Like a deer’s hooves along a hunting track. To the west the sky dimmed. From the clear of day’s blue. To the bleeding of the day. Reds. Oranges. Purples around the […]

Flash | Lost & Magic Found

JRPG tavern flipside by basakward “Lost and Magic Found” Laurence spilled into the Leaky Faucet, returning to the scene of the crime with the most damning redness on his hands… a pounding hangover. Light didn’t reach inside the Faucet. The watering hole banished sunlight, preferring low candlelight. The more depressing the better. The less someone […]
