Charli’s Carrot Ranch prompt this week:
February 6, 2020, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less), write a story to the theme “a dog in the daisies.” It can be any dog, real or imagined. Push into the setting and as always, go where the prompt leads!
Goodbye
Buster bounded through the field, trampling daisies as he ran.
“Come on, boy. Let’s go.” Max called out to his canine pal. “I’ve got your favourite steak at home. Come on!”
Petra gently put a hand on Max’s shoulder. “Come on Maxy, we need to go.” She squeezed. Max turned, his eyes moist with unshed tears.
“He’s not coming back, is he?”
Petra swallowed a sob. She always knew this would be the hardest part, scattering the ashes of the family’s beloved pet dog in his favourite field.
Shaking her head, she took Max’s hand as her tears fell.
But I Smile Anyway...

Beautifully written, Ritu. Tears streaming. Our very first German Shorthair was Buster. Bobo was our last. We brought home her ashes today. Tears water what is green within is and from that we grow in love. ❤

Beautiful, but a little bit sad too. Care for Sonu and the feathered family members, Sis! Based on the loss of Charli, you did a wonderful tribute. Michael
