Forty-eight words…

for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt where this week’s given word is Teapot.

A teapot, an unwashed cup.  And photographs.  A girl holding a certificate, a boy in a wheelchair. 

A card from school.  Get well soon, Mrs Hodges.  Lots of names, big, small, wobbly, neat.  Kisses. 

I hope we’ll meet again one day,  up there.  So I can thank you.

    All of us have at least one such person in our lives. Great take on the prompt, Keith.
    Ohh, and would you like to try you luck in writing six word stories?

    This story is way too short! I’d like to hear the rest. 🙂

    Funny how some things remind us of special people. Nicely done, Keith.
