FLASH 55 FICTION FRIDAY - "Look to the Sky"

LOOK TO THE SKY


The breeze gently blew the flaps on the teepee...


My home for many months now,


as I made my way across the land.



In search of my family.



I was just a young boy from the Mohegan tribe when


new settlers came and took my parents away.



I look up to the sky...for answers!



Look up to the G-Man for having us do these 55's every Friday.
If you have one go on over to see Mr. KnowItAll and join in!!

Nicely done. I could hear drum beats.

lime said...

to answer the question you left at my place...the chiro office where i work does not employ any massage therapists but the one where i am a patient does. i am very grateful for the therapists who have worked on me. it's massage therapy after an adjustment that seems to be getting me past a certain plateau in my recovery from the last car accident back in june.
