snatched her purse in one deft move

and rode off grinning.

I've posted this for Succinctly Yours, a meme graciously hosted by Grandma's Goulash

Each week, Grandma offer us a photo prompt and a suggested word we might incorporate into a written piece of either 140 characters or 140 words. You might enjoy checking out the humourous entries at the link below. Today's word is "glisten"...

Microfiction Monday: Ancestors

Each week, Susan at Stony River posts a photo she's chosen, then invites us to weave a tale around this photo using 140 characters or fewer.

My entry for today comes in at exactly 140 characters...

Moving forward, we look back -

to meet the road ahead,

we ponder whence we came.

.

On the path of our lives,

none walk alone -

other steps brought us here,

so too they lead us on
