for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt # 127 where the given word is Replace and the word allowance, 89.

mmmmmmmmmmmm

It was a beautiful day. The sun smiled at me. Trees bowed and birds tweeted twello. I waved at a flag and it waved back.

Unfortunately, I tripped on a dancing dandelion and my hat flew off. I asked a passing gust of wind to bring it back. Blow that it said and kept going. My shadow tried catching it but sadly he slithered down a drain.

I miss my shadow, we had so much in common. He was always by my side. How will I ever replace him?

Dear Keith,

A Peter Pan-ish story. Perhaps he can find a Wendy to sew his shadow back on. Very clever story.

Shalom,

Rochelle
