Today’s image brought some interesting and fun prompts. Here are the Thursday stories!
Trespass
Jerry knew he shouldn’t trespass, but he needed to sit on their swing.
He remembered their twilight tryst here on their first date and the thrill of stealing onto the property to try out the giant swing.
After forty-two wonderful years, he bid her ghost goodbye, swinging one last time.
Twitter prompt from @imagestoby: trespass, twilight, tryst
Different Strokes
Benson climbed the tower to the swing high above the partygoers. He listened to the hum of their voices, hearing Lydia’s laughter.
He smiled to himself, glad she was enjoying the party then, watching the sunset as he anticipated nightfall, let the tensions of the day release from his body.
Facebook prompt from Laura Gannon: release, nightfall, laughter
Swingers
Swings and sunsets just seemed to go together. May had promised Josh anything he wanted for his thirtieth. When he requested a “swinging” birthday party, she hadn’t realized he meant that literally.
Josh, May, and eight of their friends toasted the setting sun from atop the world’s tallest swing set.
