It was just an ordinary November afternoon - calm, a bit cloudy, and just a touch of nip in the air. Only a few days left before the Thanksgiving crowd would show up on my doorstep. I tried to push my overflowing cart of groceries faster. That’s when I felt a tap on my shoulder. “Strange,” I thought. I turned and nearly screamed. There… right there in front of me was a giant turkey. “Pardon me,” said Tom T. Urkee. “But I believe that’s my uncle you’ve got in your cart.”
Jenny Matlock gives a story prompt each week. If you like to write, check it out. It's always 100 words or less, so it doesn't take a lot of time. Yay!
LOL! I would scream too! Good one.
ReplyDeleteOh, dear! This could be a problem!!

So I guess you didn't invite Tom for dinner? This was a cute take on the prompt. Very clever! Kat
ReplyDeleteWhat a unique and clever take on the prompt! Giant turkeys can be so rude sometimes! LOL! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHa. That is funny.
ReplyDeleteWell, put that turkey right back and find a YOUNGER one! That one could be a tough old bird!!
ReplyDeleteHa ha! That's a good one!~Ames
ReplyDeleteOh my, that would certainly make one want to high tail it and run, ha, ha. Good one ;-)
ReplyDeleteThere is a moral to this story. Your story has given a good argument to those who have chosen not to eat meat. But it is so yummy! :)
