The Prompt Image was > Lioness and Cub.

You are all invited to read the different takes – all 55-worders about a lioness and her cub.

To quote Jane Stansfeld, “This one is masterful – it crams so much into one image – love, gentleness, ferocity, masculinity, femininity, hope and innate ferocity, to name a few.”

I received no less than nine (9) contributions! This was after I swept up the first easy four with my post Maternal Instincts. Everyone came in spot-on 55 words!

You are invited to take this tour – come along, but do remain within the vehicle and the big cats will leave you alone.

And in no discernable order, we present:

First off we have a new contributor, although she is a regular visitor to my blog. Please enjoy the words of LadyBlueRose blogging as ladybluerose.

Next, we have nightlake blogging as call2read. If you are new here, she was my Blog Pick for March 2013.

Many of you know Peg Richards blogging as Listening for Joy. Her contribution touches a chord with all parents. I am so pleased and proud that she reposted on her blog Pride and Joy.

We have a new contributor. Please join me in welcoming penpusherpen blogging as Poems ‘n Stuff and her take.

Richard is passionate about highlighting the ills in society and this is reflected in his blog posts. I am very pleased to present Richard W Posner blogging as The Baby and the Bathwater.

I’ve been reading Susan’s blog posts for sometime now. She is also very supportive of my blog and here is her contribution – what a trap! Susan blogging as A woman’s view of hunting…with men.

I started reading Uzo only recently and was therefore very pleased to have him join us. Please enjoy Uzoma blogging as 85 Degrees.

I have been reading the next contributor’s blog for well over a year and she is also a regular visitor here. Please stop a little to relish the contribution from willowdot21 blogging as willowdot21.

Last but certainly not the least, Jane Stansfeld blogging as jstansfeld. Some of you might recall Jane featured in my post on 1 April. If you missed that, please click on Blog pick for April 2013.

We hope you enjoyed this visit. You are invited to join in the next one. All my commenters are very polite and supportive of each other, so, don’t be shy or anxious.

I shall return on Thursday 11 April with a new Image Prompt, a 55-word Flash Fiction and some guidelines on how you can showcase and share your talent.
