Dance of Spring

This is an unusual post for my blog, but I'm entering a writing contest called "Spring Fling." Below is my entry. It is limited to 150 words and must match a gif. This has 149 words. I hope you enjoy it. The story is called "The Dance of Spring."




Bruno and I decided to be spring fairies today. We are starting the dance of spring!

“Blow, gentle wind. Join in the dance of spring.”

The breeze kisses my cheek dancing by.

The sun peeks out from behind a cloud.

“Shine pretty sun. Join in the dance of spring.”

Bruno feels the warmth, chasing his tail with joy.

Seeds wait to sprout. We give them some water.

“Come out, little flowers! Join in the dance of spring.”

The flowers bloom with color, smelling sweet.

“Look, Bruno. A chrysalis!”

“Come out, butterfly! Join in the dance of spring.”

The butterfly breaks free and flies in the sunshine.

We climb the bare branches of a tall tree.

“Wake up, giant trees. Join in the dance of spring.”

Green leaves grow, pink flowers bud and bees buzz by.

Finally, our day done, we lie in the grass enjoying the dance of spring.
