A Grizzly Adventure

The bear eyed our host while I scribbled to the digital gods on my iPad – HELP US! With bated breath, I hit send. Please let the detailed message get through to the police. 

The furry beast cast a tall shadow over the camp; our nerves, taut with fear, felt like they would snap at any moment. I quietly wished the bear would decide to crave something other than us campers today. 

Right then, I saw a red light on the bear’s coat—he was in the mountie’s crosshairs! With a relieved gaze in his direction, I uttered, “We are safe!”

    1. Only a self-imposed word limit, David. I really enjoy trying to structure in 100 word stories but also restrict myself to using the words in order. Although sometimes I do present it as a free verse poem, but only when the words really line up well for one. Glad you enjoyed it! ❤
