Three cheers for Microfiction # 54!


I thought I would do an early post for Microfiction Monday (this is my fourth entry for the writing prompt exercise), and here is what I came up with:














Kay posed for the photo, but hated how Sam and Ben stood so close. Dan's rugged good looks were more her style-wait, Dan was looking!
( 140 )

This caption took some time because I couldn't get past making fun of those swim trunks! Why not give your pen a whirl-remember it's just 140 characters or less, but be sure to link up at the Stony River website.

    Love your take on the pic for the day, Susan! We do have fun, don't we? And the pics are a bit of a challenge -- sometimes more than others! Glad you're playing along with us! Have a wonderful week!

    Nice microfiction. I wasn't sure whether to go with Dan's rather obvious gaze in my entry... in the end I went in a different direction. ;)

    Sounds like this is heading toward a love triangle! Thanks for the morning laugh. A unique take on this week's MM picture. Have a wonderful week!

    My husband picked up on the swim trunks in his 140 contribution.

    Was Dan the balding-man in the far right corner of the picture? If so--quite the winner...LOL.
    Have a great week. Cheers!

    Those trunks -- yeah! I like your take on it, and can't help wondering about the dynamic between all these folks!
