Microfiction Monday #13



Welcome to Microfiction Monday,
where a picture paints 140 characters.
Susan over at Stonyriver hosts Microfiction Monday.

Here's this week's picture, and my story to go with it:


I'm looking for my friend, said Elwood
Have you seen him?
He's a six foot "Pooka" rabbit
and his name is Harvey.
You can't miss him!~


The rules are simple,to use Susan's picture she posts then compose a story up to 140 characters including spaces and punctuation.
Then hop on over to Susan's and leave your name. She even has a brilliant character counter to help us count.
As Susan promises, it's fast, it's fiction, it's fun!

  1. I LOVED that movie! Then again, I was the only kid on the block who had a crush on Jimmy Stewart. :)

    And I loved this one! I fear too many of us will be headed for Wonderland this week. ;)

    Have a great week!

    My fear too, that nobody would know who Harvey was!
    Maybe it's true that good characters stand the test of time. We'll see, sure hope so!
    Thanks for remembering him, Iloved him too!

    I was afraid that many of you would not know who Harvey was.
    Harvey was a white rabbit( a Pooka) that was the imaginary friend of Elwood P Down(Jimmy Stewrt, I told you I was old)in the movie by the same name.
    Steven Speilberg is directing a new version of Harvey!
    Sorry pal,hope you enjoyed it anyway! Maybe I should have saved my idea until after the New one comes out!
    Everything old is new again. That's good for me too!

    I had completely forgotten about that Elwood! Chicago's favorite son and there was a Chez Paul restaurant in the Chicago area too.(probably one in many other cities too)

    It's such an old movie but will be reborn again by Steven Spielberg.
    Thanks for liking it anyway, so sweet!

    Cheryl;

    I am hoping that the new movie by SP is hve as good as the old one.
    Thanks Cheryl, we think a like on this one.
    I really think spring is coming this time;
    Have a great week yourself!

  27. Liked the Harvey reference; being six-foot tall certainly explains why he's so much larger than the hat.
