Sacha’s back, after a little #Writespiration hiatus, with another cool prompt!
Write about a Kaleidoscope – maybe its a kaleidoscopic fantasy world, or a memory, a maze or perhaps a toy. Let your mind wander and see where it takes you. Entries short this week – under 100 words, deadline 9th October. Post entries in the comments or use a pingback.
So, here is my entry!
“Quick Cap’n! They be gaining on us!”
Captain John Bird hurriedly fished his spyglass out of his pocket to see what this vessel was that chasing them.
“It looks like they’re preparing the cannon, and, that be a pirate flag on their mast!”
Focussing the glass, Captain Bird looked out, but all he could see was a rainbow of colours, no ship.
“Damn this thing!” he thought, pulling his handkerchief out to clean the lens.
It was only then that he realised, in the hurry to board his ship, he’d picked up his son’s kaleidoscope instead of his spyglass…
Thank you and Good night!

My problem is coming home with little toys in my pockets, taken from the kids in my class… I’m always intending on putting them away but they get forgotten!

Yep I can relate. The time I took my sons school locker key to work. I thought it was my bike padlock key. That caused a kerfuffle
