#6WSC

My lovely friend Marian Allen occasionally hosts The Six Word Story Challenge, in which we are given a topic and invited to write a story in six words or less.  The directions are taken from her  website, my story is below.

Write a tiny little story in only six words (not counting the title).

Growth

Everything starts small — a seed becomes a plant, an egg becomes an ostrich, a look becomes a quarrel, a slight becomes a war.

The most wonderful things, the most terrible things, the most powerful things, the most vulnerable things — all begin small and grow. Or they might begin big and grow smaller, which is a very funny thing to say, when you think about it!

Here’s a Six Word Story by Ernest Hemingway.

Such an impact and unseen images in only six words…

Pruning
Not all growth is good.
