Challenge
Prose Challenge – Write a story in 75 words or less that is inspired by the photo prompt and one of the word prompts.
Bonus points for managing to use all three of the word prompts in your story 🙂- Delicious – Distasteful – Dimension
The orchard crop was the best ever. The trees laden with the most delicious apples. The yield giving the trees a different dimension as the branches bent under the fruity load. We planned a harvest the following week, but found it distasteful when the neighbourhood kids found reason to pick the unripened fruit and gorge themselves leaving the cores scattered around our yard.
We hoped their resulting bellyache would serve as a good life-long lesson.

Oh yeah! Belly ache in spades!
Hey Michael, Namaste 🙂
I do so enjoy the phrase ‘fruity load’ 🙂
I also recall apple-scrumping when I was a wee laddie and loving every moment of it. That the farmer also grew plums, and a host of wild berries made the effort all the more worthwhile. Heady days indeed!
Hoping all is well. See you next weekend 🙂
Namaste 🙂
