That’s Not Fair

“That one looks like a bird, one point for me.”

“That one looks like a circle, one point for me too.”

“That looks like an arrow.”

“Which one?”

“That one over there.”

“No it isn’t, it would be if the distance between both clouds wasn’t so much; minus one for you.”

“That’s not fair.”


The photo prompt has been given by Na’ama Yehuda at the Friday Fictioneers hosted by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields and the word prompt (Distance) has been given by Denise Farley at the Girlie on the Edge.

Happy New Year Everyone 🙂 May 2021 be better than 2020.

    I remember in Peanuts when Linus sees sculptures and biblical scenes and poor ol’ Chuck sees duckies!
