I urge people to join in, comment with your paragraph of fiction to accompany the image. It doesn’t have to follow my story or reflect the same themes. It can be a poem or in a different language (provide a translation please ). Anyone who wants to join in, is welcome. This photograph will be reblogged under Ermisenda on tumblr and added to the Picture it & Write gallery on Facebook and Pinterest.

Please continue to write however you’re inspired, but add a tag to the beginning of your post if there’s mature content in order to keep Picture it & Write an engaging event for all of our followers.

I rolled onto my side and closed my eyes. I couldn’t get comfortable on the sand. I rubbed my sunscreen-slick brow but ended up getting sand all over my face. Shaking my head, I tried to brush it away. Giving up, I sat up right and looked out to the water. I scanned the people splashing in the waves. Where was my son? The clouds draped the sky, leaving us alone in the chill. Fear clenched my heart. I looked over to my left to alert my wife, but she wasn’t there either.
