FLASH 55 - A WOMAN

I've cheated a bit with my 55 this week (well, a lot actually) but I've been away for a while and not quite back into writing mode yet. I know you'll forgive me. This was sent to me by one of my dearest friends. I have no idea who wrote it and it's a couple of words over the limit but I love it . Hope you enjoy it too. Missed you guys.


" A Woman "

"Be very careful if you make a woman cry,
because God counts her tears.
The woman came out of a man's rib.
Not from his feet to be walked on.
Not from his head to be superior,
but from the side to be equal.
Under the arm to be protected,
and next to the heart to be loved."


Flash Fiction - Each Friday, I compose a short story of 55 words - no more, no less. If you would like to join in the fun and games... post your story and report to the boss - If you're not interested in contributing a story, feel free to read the other entries. I'm sure any comments you have would be appreciated.

Happy reading and writing!
Love

    I've heard something similar to this, but it was a lot shorter... and cruder.

    Nice way to ease back into things though.

    Just by way of general information, mine is actually part of a series I started last summer, and the background might be useful in understanding this one.
