About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Electra
Prompt: Write a complete story about a cat in 55 words.

----

Electra, the tabby, hated the couple who picked her off her mother’s tits and adopted her.

When Electra didn’t heed commands, the wife said, “Electra’s deaf!” and she gave Electra to Janice.

Janice was surprised when the vet said Electra heard perfectly.

With Janice, Electra was obedient and lovable.

She had only resented the couple.

Exactly 55 words according to MS Word.
