in the field
games were enjoyed
tricks were employed
a day in the life
of two once-lonely boys
who somehow had found each other
the tree
whispers almost inaudibly
will you be here tomorrow
the cloud says oh yes
and we’ll make up more games
but if the wind comes
i may not look the same
you’ll know it’s me when you

this story was brought about by the Daily prompt – clouds,

and now it’s telling me it would be crazy to leave it out of the Daily Prompt – wind
and insane to not let it play with the Daily prompt – tree
