July Six Word Photo Story Challenge: “Cute Creatures”

1 min readJul 31, 2024

Do you like my new Antlers?

“I’ve walked down your street every day during July.

Finally, on July 31, you notice me.

What’s that? You’re writing a story about cute creatures. And it’s due today.

You want me to what? Turn my head toward you? How about this? It’s my best profile. Now, I’ve got a favor to ask of you.

You do know why we grow Antlers.

Right, it’s because we’re ‘horny.’ Humans are so crude.

So here’s my favor. My mate, she’s following close behind; there she is. Doesn’t she look wonderful!

We need a shaded spot, just for a little while. Over there, behind your garage, it would be perfect; plenty of room. You won’t even know we’re there.

Thank you so much.

Then I can get rid of these antlers.

And we’ll stop eating your hostas.”
