Ficlets

All at the same time

The purple flowers stretched and creaked
working their way to the sun
the grass curled around them
drooping and reaching
all at the same time

I lay down in the flowers
and the grass
with the dark, cool dirt on my back
and the bright sun in my eyes
I am cold and hot
all at the same time

I sank deeper and deeper
until the flowers and grass
seemed to be miles high
and the shadows of grass
on the purple petals
made me wonder
how this could exist
with me
all at the same time
