The Memory Shelf
I went on a lovely sentimental journey the other day while visiting my Mom. I walked into her room and saw her what-not shelf full of old bric-a-brac. On one shelf were my silver charms from a bracelet I’d thought long lost and the shells I’d picked up from the time we went to Hawaii.
So many memories. A tiny Tupperware charm from who knows which party, Grandma with my uncle when they were little and some things I’d never even seen before. I took a photograph, a memory of memories.

You have absolutely no problem with the 100-word challenge, which isn’t surprising in my opinion as you are able to be so succinct with your haikus while capturing ideas so thoroughly.

Wow! I like these concentrated stories in fact much more that the prompts where people want me to write at least a thousand words…
