100 Word Challenge 1/22

One day after school I was walking my dog, on a trail through the forest and out of my peripheral vision I thought I saw someone. When I turned around there was a tree. Don’t get me wrong it looked like a person but there was more to it. Their arms tired from what looked like years of holding up other trees, patches with no leaves all  dry and slowly chipping away. This was a piece of art except it was different. It wasn’t the work of an underpaid artist spending hours for perfection, it was natural and was beautiful.

This is officially my second post for the 100 word blogging challenge. I hope you liked it. Feel free to leave a comment saying what you thought of this picture, don’t forget to leave a link to your blog so that I can stop by. -Bella

  1. Hi Bella –

    I’m so glad you posted your 100WC on Friday, as that allowed me to repost it on the 100WC list of active bloggers for the week. By participating in this challenge, I know you’ll all get more comments regularly. BTW, I love the creativity evident throughout your post. There’s so much imagery, which is essential for pulling in readers.

    It’s wonderful to see that you’re sharing your blog with family. My daughter Cady is the editor for UVA’s Iris magazine, and, similarly, I love reading her writing. Keep up YOUR writing…in high school and beyond! If you’re interested, here’s a link to Iris; imagine yourself writing for a college magazine someday! 🙂 https://iris.virginia.edu/

    Cheers,

    1. Mrs. Rombach,

      I am so glad that you liked my post. I will try to keep posting as soon as I can. Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback! Wow, that would be really cool if I could write for a college magazine one day.

      Thank you again!

  2. Bella,
    Your writing sounds like an artist’s work! I could picture the way the narrator first spied the tree/human. Then, through your words, I could feel for the creature all weathered with age. I am glad its look could be appreciated for its beauty.
    Keep writing.
