This week's writing challenge from
Five Sentence Fiction
( Lillie McFerrin Writes ) is based upon the prompt:
Conflict
|
What it’s all about: Five Sentence Fiction is about packing a powerful punch in a tiny fist. Each week Lillie posts one word for inspiration, then anyone wishing to participate will write a five sentence story based on the prompt word.
Another short and sad one...
Tapestry
As he crept over the field toward the enemy, Warren noticed how beautiful the sky was that morning. Yellow and orange clouds entwined themselves with the soft blue light of daybreak into a glorious, glowing tapestry. As he paused to take in the splendor above, a thunderous force threw him to the ground. When his eyes reopened, nearly everything was red. The colors didn't go together at all well he decided before his eyes closed again.

What a pity! Nicely done..
ReplyDeleteThank you! And thanks for stopping by to read my little stories!
DeleteSuch vivid writing KR, I think I felt that thunderous jolt...
ReplyDeleteThanks! I didn't want to be too specific about what happened since the character would probably never know, so I made it "a thunderous force." I'm pleased that you think it works here!
Deletethat's war without beauty,love and humanity

ReplyDeleteThere is little I can add to that. Thanks for stopping by and commenting! It does man a lot when people leave their thoughts on my blog.
