Sunday Scribblings; Ghosts



I am participating in Sunday Scibblings this week.
Below is my first contribution to this weekly challenge.






She runs through the wooded lot like a horse in the wind. Her pale skin reflects the moonlight with a glow of blond hair flowing freely behind. All is quiet; no snap of sticks, no rustle of leaves. She never makes a sound. Little Elisabeth moves through the night air until she reaches her resting place. So soft is her touch to the cold stone. Her image thins and the air thickens as her misty molecules transcend into the ground. All that is left is the cold worn out stone that reads;

Elisabeth Grant
1923-1926
Our little lamb

  4. Gosh Mya this is a haunting piece,
    With exquisite descriptions placed,
    And ghosts, that evaporate from sight,
    Your talent Ma'am must be embraced.

  6. Welcome to Sunday Scribblings!

    This is lovely and sad, but also peaceful and sweet. One feels for the child's parents for losing their "little lamb".

    A very nice piece of writing!

  7. Hi Mya, thanks for your nice comment to me.
    Welcome to Sunday Scribblings! I have found it very inspirational.
    I loved your touching story, so sad to read her age. Yet there was something so peaceful in it as well. I found myself wondering how she passed? Was it from a fall from a horse? Poor little lamb.
