Armageddon and the Tender Hawk
A Drabble
by Nicole Smith
The clouds reminded me of a snake that day - what a day for Armageddon.
I panicked, my fear reflected in the eyes of a nan ..
But then we saw it - a tender hawk. Nan , squidgy trees and frozen spikes - the hawk seemed like the answer to our prayers.
Grandma looked at the sausage and ranted darkly. Nan, partying agreeably, conveyed similar sentiments.
A sense of deep anticipation ran from me, ,.
Nan admired the hawk's idyllic foot, breath held tight.
Growl, Growl!
With help from a pink banana, the hawk saved the world.
