Six words every day - The Hemingway Challenge

The great author Ernest Hemingway was challenged to write a story in just six words.

The result?

For sale, baby shoes, never worn.


He regarded it as his greatest.

......

Do a little storytelling and come up with your own six word story.

just six short little declarative words.

......

A handful of my own six word memoirs:

bring back
the wounded
with heart


lifelines are
never straight
and narrow


the cat
with one
life left


shared love
with you
my soulmates


but to
live in
an anemome


airport terminal
flight departs
heart shatters



little prince
grows into
 kind king



my bed
turned ocean
underwater love



......

Make certain to visit those of others over at:

These days,
Nothing's better
Than everything.

I figure if it's only six words, it should have more than one meaning... :)
