I’ve taken advantage of two prompts to do my tiny tale today.
The Six-Sentence Story prompt this weekend was RAMBUNCTIOUS
The Sunday Wordle contains the following prompt words:
sunset, finish, string, spill, limit, heartbeat, trails, fairy, lacy, tick, stone, gate
And here are my six sentences, more a scene than a story, though:
“Beat you,” Andy shouted as he rushed along the narrowest of trails ahead of his sister, stepped on a conveniently placed stone and was over the fence in a heartbeat.
“Honestly, Andy, I don’t know why you’re so rambunctious this morning, but I’ve about reached my limit.”
“Come on, Lacy, don’t be a tick. Just step on that rock, spill yourself over the fence and we’ll see if some fairy has left a bit of gold in the meadow.”
“Gold indeed, you dreamer! The only gold you’ll see that way is the sunset – and maybe some buttercups in the woods as you dash through.”

Nicely done!

A fine bit of word weaving, Christine, using all those prompts!
Imho, scenes are little stories and this one was thoroughly enjoyable.

The sunset and buttercups may be all the gold one needs.

For most of us, it’s the closest we’ll come to real gold. 🙂

You must see a lot of gold over, and on, the nearby sea. Thanks for commenting.
