Written for Weekly Prompts Weekend Challenge
and Weekend Writing Prompt #368 where we are
asked to be creative in exactly 100 words incorporating
the prompt words “sleep” and “quaint”. This is my story.
We visited the Poe Cottage this week, former home of the poet Edgar Allan Poe. Itβs about a 30 minute drive from my house and I thought my two teenage grandchildren would enjoy the walk-around since theyβre both reading the works of Poe in school.
Itβs a quaint old place with small bedrooms, a common kitchen-parlor-dining room downstairs and an upstairs loft. My 6β tall grandson questioned how a grown man could sleep in the tiny bed.
At one point I realized my grandson had gone missing. Imagine my embarrassment when he was found napping in Poeβs bed!
Inquiring minds.
