This weeks prompt : Mistake
Here’s my Six word Story on the prompt
“He chose blue instead of red”
(Fellow British WordPressers – make of that what you will!)
Appearances in a darkened room
can be deceptive to the naked eye
Old Cats, (and sometimes bats)
fly through an old house (in search of a mouse)
At night, in the light, of a midnight moon
it’s not only Owls that fly
So don’t take flight – when something white
suddenly shows up, at night.
(It’s only the old owner, passing by.)

Container of time
Locking tumblers and cogs
Over days months and years
Cover the movement of hands – hear them tick!
Keeping watch for Father Time as
Sand passes through his timer
