Sunday Photo Fiction – My Way or the Highway
Susan could hardly wait! It was their third month anniversary and he had a surprise for her. Being a single young woman of twenty-six, she knew what she wanted and hoped she had found it, with Jim.
The bell chimed and she rushed to the door. Jim had also taken his time getting ready for the anniversary date. He showered, shaved, and applied her favorite cologne. He didn’t want to make too big a thing of it, so dressed in a new t-shirt and shorts. He enjoyed time with Susan, but not ready for a serious relationship. It was the anniversary of their first date, thought he’d picked the perfect surprise for the day.
Susan tried not to show her disappointment in Jim’s casual attire, and her curiosity was tweaked thinking what his “surprise” might be. Her hopes continued to travel down the “d” road as he suggested they walk a few blocks. Her new high strapped sandals started to rub painfully as the walk lengthened. Finally he stopped and told her to close her eyes. When she opened them, there was her surprise, two bright yellow rent-a-bikes. She just turned back to him with disheartened expression and said, “no way!”

MLMM Sunday Writing Prompt – Maple Grove
The most peace of mind I’ve had in my life was as a child–actually many places come to mind, but my favorite was the maple grove. As you walked up from the road there seemed to be a wide path that was canopied by maple trees. The outside areas were wild flower heaven. Every spring the school held a contest to see who could bring in the first blooms of the season. Trailing arbutus, violets, jack-in-the-pulpit, bluets, and more. You could lay there under the trees or among the flowers and just appreciate nature’s beauty.

MLMM Wordle #124 – “No Invincible Endeavors”
He acted out every day, sometimes in a worse way than others. It was no surprise to anyone to see a slap, a pummel, or a melodramatic stomp on the stairs.Even the stringent rules of the school left his classmates bare-faced if they gave the boy the silent treatment, not wanting to rile his linear wrath or catch his retaliation to a Cupid’s bow sneer.
Most days he would stare out the windowsill and the instructor would appear not to notice, harboring the days till the crestfallen boy would be out of his class for good.

Story Starter #14
“Look, it’s opening.” The entire zoology class was agog. Not one person had ever seen how this animal began. Was it a shell, a chrysalis, an egg, or just larvae? All eyes were on the tiny mass as it started moving and something seemed to wiggle out.
That was the last anyone saw of Mr. Fumbleton’s science class. Headlines in the local newspaper the next day: ASTEROID HITS LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL.

Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt #97
“Only a few more days till we can be together, I can’t wait!” She whispered these words to him, hoping her voice would carry for him to hear. They were always separated until twice during the year, and even then, too brief.
The wolf and the hawk had always loved each other, but since the curse, they could only see each other for a brief moment each day. The equinox was their only longer time together, sharing a lifetime of love in moments.

MLMM Saturday Mix
Our three words, using onomatopoeia are:
▪ jangle
▪ ooze
▪ squelch
***
She wore long ones, with drops that jangle
Always her choice, with noisy dangles
She never took her friends’ advice
“Why not wear something nice?”
They were just trying to help
Her fit in, but could not squelch
Her uniqueness–how it would ooze
From all her being by what she’d choose.
