“A Guiding Star” by Dawn Ward

Submitted to Contest #39

Samantha looked up at the stars.  Hoping for some insight.  Some direction.  She wanted so badly for the universe to show her the way.  She saw a glimmer of hope as a shooting star shot across the sky.  Samantha held her breath, closed her eyes, and made her plea.  Tonight, she would sleep on her decision.  She never did make Hasty decisions. Samantha rose earlier than the sun and knew what she was going to do.  She started packing her hiking bag, first aid kit, trail type foods, water bottle, one chan...

“What Once Was” by Dawn Ward

Submitted to Contest #34

It was a typical day for me.  Master got me up at six o’clock.  He booted me in the butt that morning to go outside.  Who likes having to pee in the rain? Whatever. If he thinks i’m going down those steps to do my business, he’s wrong.  I’ll just sniff around here on the deck. Ah, perfect. I hurry up and scoot back into the house as the master is having a fit.  Then I think HA, you're getting ready for work, i’ll have the last laugh. I shake my fur and spray water all over him. Then I high tail it out of there ...
