55 Flash Fiction Friday


If I were a mermaid,

I’d let my hair wander in the ebb and flow of the tide.

I’d have rainbow colored seahorses as companions,

and I’d exhale bubbles that would float up to the surface

like balloons drifting into the sun.

Alas, I have four limbs and no fishy tail.

I am merely me.


Do you know who I am and where I hail from?
Let me know if you write a 55 Flash. I'd love to read it!

Oh that is just awesome! I love it!
Where is that mermaid? At your house?
I would love to have a mermaid thing like that at my house...
Thanks for playing!

Wonderful read on a cold, bleak morning here in Colorado. I've just started writing flash (again) with my first 55ff. I'll be posting here if I can muster the discipline: http://nanomicroflash.blogspot.com/
