I left the car,

Alongside the waters of the beautiful river,
Mimicking her movements, following her curves.
River to my left and to my right eroded rock;
Great grey back,
Ancient beast, turned away and sleeping through the dappled afternoon.
And up against the creature's bulk, standing silent and solemn by the roadside,
A house.

Wizard and the Runaway Chairby *MonsieurFantasy

Reminds me of baba yaga..

*MonsieurFantasy Jun 24, 2012

I believe she's the one with a house on hens legs. Of course my character is a wizard rather than a witch, but I think they are both quite humorous.

Thanks for the fave
