She wandered ‘cross the meadow. Butterflies danced, birds whistled, dazzling crystals leapt from a tumbling waterfall.
“Reach for the sun, cast aside the clouds’ an unseen voice murmured.
Warm sunrays caressed her palms.
“Reach far, and you’ll discover paradise”.
Then she tripped, landing in a smelly cow pat.
“Whoops,” the unseen voice chuckled.

ha ha, very funny
Delighted to have amused you!
lol…
Mission accomplished!
Oh you got me there – I thought it was going to be a serious one for a nano second!! 🙂
I did a serious one last week, so don’t expect another for a while!
Oh no.
Unfortunately yes!
🙃
Oh, my goodness Keith, well penned. Love the twist at the end. Great message in a short story.
Thanks so much Suzette!
great twist!
Thanks, Beth!
There’s a reason I tend to watch my feet while walking. 🙂
Me too, Christine!
You are too much! It’s like a mental vacation to come here and read your humor😊
Haha, I like that! Cheers Leyde.
Cheers, and blessings to you as well, Keith😊
Well, that’s a bummer.
…especially as she landed bottom-first!
Life is all about dealing with the cow pats while reaching for the stars.
That’s life! Cheers, Mimi.
Just when she’d glimpsed heaven, she tumbles straight back down to earth! Cow pats have a way of doing that, ha ha! Probably because they’re always so big. Elephant pats are even bigger! Love your cheeky writes, Keith! 😀
Sadly yes, it spoilt the moment. I do remember seeing elephant pats, I wouldn’t want to land in one of those!
Ha ha ha!
Lol! (Why are cow pats so funny?) Also, great graphic Keith.
Now you come to mention it, they are the only ‘pats’ that are! I get as much fun from creating graphics as I do writing stories, so thank you.
Yep. Mind the gaps, as they say. And the cow pat (patty, patti).
You made me listen to Jim Stafford’s song, “Cow Patti.” 🙂
“Yippie eye eh Cow Patti
She rode into town to find the man that killed her daddy”
Now you’ve made me listen to it!
“But he slipped in something that was layin’ in the street and was shot ‘fore he hit the ground”!
A rather more dramatic event but I get the connection! Cheers Bill.
