writing prompt friday: leaf

FallBridge

Hello and welcome back to Writing Prompt Friday! It’s spring. Easter’s around the corner. We finally made it through March. I’m out of Twinkies, but I still have Oreos. I’ve become a wiz at conference calls. The cat’s bored with us. And I thought I’d be caught up on my laundry by now, but no; turns out I really dislike doing laundry.

I sit next to a big window all day and have been watching things bloom, which is lovely. And it brings us to this week’s writing prompt…

Write about the life of a leaf, from the leaf’s perspective.

Stay safe. Stay healthy.

Yours, Ducky
