Today’s challenger to ‘write a story in less than one hundred words’ is Geoff Parkes. Geoff’s response to the challenge comes in the form of Apple Vision which you can read below. Enjoy.
In the first age, I raged beneath the tree because I was too short to pluck the plump red apples there.
In the second age, I climbed the tree, smiled and sat branch-fast, munching and crunching sweet-juiced fruit.
In the third age, I cried as truth hit home. My enfeebled legs denied me apple time. But now I smile a sated, grateful smile. Let others feast; I know how apples taste.

What a lovely story. Don’t you agree?
