Susan at Stony River has begun a Microfiction Monday wherein participants write a story in 140 characters or less based on a particular image that Susan has chosen for the day. Design 215’s Character Counter helps keep track of the number of characters. It’s a fun exercise in creative conciseness…or concise creativity… You can visit Susan’s to see some very creative stories for today.
Here’s today’s photo and my “take” on it:
Unnoticed by Katie’s mother, Father Time lurks in the shadows, ready to whisk Katie to adulthood all too soon. He moves fast for an old man.
Stray Thoughts 
Oh, he does indeed! Darn it! Great one for the day!

Marvelous Barbara. It goes faster than any of us want it to. Perfect for this photo 🙂 Well done 🙂
Don’t let that father time take away her childhood.
We won’t let him!
Really good Barbara, and oh so true!
Oh! This is wonderful! Sweet and “heartful”.
You might want to come look at mine again. I edited it thanks to Thom & Amoeba not getting the story.
Beautifully done. It certainly goes fast.
That does happen way too fast. well done.
I think that this one is my favorite, Barbara.
Oh, that’s so true – what a wonderful way to turn this photo to a story. Wow Barbara!
Way too fast in my opinion, good take on the picture. First time joining in for me, hope you’ll drop by and give me your take.
Awwwww… that is sweet… he DOES move fast for an old man!
bittersweet and beautifully done. great story!
I hear you on Father Time, he waits for no one. Nice one.
Oh I love this one!
And yes, he does push us ahead faster than we’d like to move sometimes. Well done!
Love this!
Father Time… how precious is that!
Love the tenderness.
