    I'm slightly nervous about posting this since it's my first attempt at writing a prompt (from any site). It's not a poem, but a short story.

    This is a great prompt. It just happened to suit how I felt when i went on one of my pic hunting drives this afternoon. It had to be a short one to conserve petrol, but I found a place (not far away) that I hadn't seen before.
