“It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.” ― Paulo Coelho, Alchemist
(A 33 word writing prompt from Trifecta)
Life was certainly interesting now, I
thought, trembling in my brand new flesh, feeling the world for the first
time. I looked down at my sleeping creator dreading my dissolution when he woke
Oh how cool! The point of view of the dream! Wonderful take on it, really brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThank you - glad you liked the angle
