Word prompt: Perspective
Phrase Prompt: ‘Three in a row’
Picture Prompt:
And here I go: 🙂
We stood three in a row watching the water surge.
Petrified, we hoped against hope.
I longed for the humans to understand our perspective when we screamed and notified them of floods.
As we part ways to unknown lands, wish we were also rescued…. just like them! Alas, Innocent us!
This was beautiful, Shalini! I loved the way you showed both sides of the same coin. True perspective. Well done!
Thanks for linking this up!
