Dave's Story. Top Story - October 2024.
Laney always was precocious. It was me that bought her the camera. Point and click! I never thought that she'd follow me with it. Why would I? To Laney and Bethan, I had a job that took me away part of the week, the life of a salesman. I never gave them any cause to be suspicious of me but thinking back now, there must have been something that I did or said to make Laney come after me.

Feline In A Dream
Introduction This is for this challenge put together by Raymond G. Taylor that you can read about here, and I am glad it has given me a reason not to write a poem, as poetry makes me feel I am being lazy although I suppose this may turn out to be a prose poem.

One Morning
One morning while out on the creek I was paddling along. Just enjoying the quiet of the morning. Then all of the sudden there was this horrible honking that would not stop. Here I am in the middle of creek with nobody around for miles. I looked around, but I didn't see any geese around. The road was far away too. I kept paddling and at the same time was looking for what could have made that honking noise. I have heard that there could be Herons located around this creek and it could have been them. I think they make a honking noise.
