Anyway onto the flash fiction!
The Birds Of
The Bridge
Several
families of birds made their nests in a cozy bridge that crossed a
river near a beach. The humans didn't bother them too much since it
was too difficult to get under there and get at the nests. On one
sunny Thursday many young birds started leaping from the bridge to
learn how to fly. Shirley The Sparrow wouldn't do it.
“I'm not
jumping!” She insisted over and over, “I'm not going to just jump
off a bridge because all the other kids are doing it.”
Her parents
pushed her towards the edge, “You're jumping off this bridge this
instant!” And with a final nudge Shirley was forced off the bridge.
All the cool bird kids were doing it. Shirley started off into the
air, wishing that perhaps it would have been better if her jump was
from a tree. Either way, she soared.
