From Charli Mills at the Carrot Ranch is this week’s story challenge.
February 28, 2022, prompt: in 99 words (no more, no less), write about the farm life.
Farm morning
Tim rose with the morning. Even when clouds kept the sun from warming his sleeping face, the sounds of life, nature’s timekeeper, had him up and ready for chores at the same time every day.
Tim stood, stretched, and looked with what could only be called love at the farm. He’d been tending this farm, or one very similar to it, for the better part of his life. He told himself he would never change. No, he wouldn’t trade this for anything.
“Timmy!? Breakfast is ready, hon.”
“Ok, mom. Be right down. I’m just checking on the ant farm.”
