Microfiction Monday # 37


Welcome to Microfiction Monday,
where a picture paints 140 characters.

Susan over at Stonyriver hosts Microfiction Monday The rules are simple,to use Susan's picture she posts then compose a story up to 140 characters including spaces and punctuation.

So here is this weeks picture and my story to go with.



Dry your sad eyes my love, said Omar
Our new Flier came with a
hefty government rebate
Plenty of money to buy the
Castle on the hill.

Now leap 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!

    I'm sure that a flying horse is GREEN and ENERGY EFFICIENT, so bring on the government rebate!

    Well done -- a laugh out loud one!
