My prompt was to Write a story about a pebble as it travels down a stream...
My life has been a long one, but I fear it's end. I tumble down the river and then around the bend.
The storm is raging on as I'm dragged along the river. I'm not the only one. The floods got everyone.
I'm pushed around the corner and I'm smashed against the bank. I wish I could move I wish I could get out.
My whole body is aching, the cold is just too much. Please may this nightmare be ending. Please I said "ENOUGH!"

I see I'm nearing a waterfall. I know that I can't stop. I'm pushed to the edge and gently dropped down. I've seen this all before but as I land and hit the bed where all my friends have stayed I carry on as I am small and so safely I'm carried away.

The river seems to be calming my body scrapes along the ground I'm out of the rapids and I can see the sun.
