Sam lied in his back on the grass, watching the birds play in the sky. Soon his mother appeared and announced it was time to go home.
"Mother, can I grow wings?"
His mother looked at his crippled legs and a tear drew a line on her face.

Beautifully written again@iamthegray You capture emotion very well... So sad, yet the innocence and wonder of the little boy is so endearing, yet saddening. I'm really enjoying your fifty words entries the past few weeks..
I'm glad you enjoy them. Most times I just look at the prompt and write whatever comes into my mind.
It's a fun challenge.
Thanks for coming around
Blessings
I like this, it stirs emotions. Two thumbs up!
:)
Smiles
Thanks for the thumbs up
Blessings
A bittersweet story, nicely done.
Though my legs are sound, I still long to fly!
😄😇😄

Haha
I don't mind flying either
Thanks for the compliment
Blessings
Very nice emotional build up. I wonder how many others find themselves in similar situations. Seeing the freedom they want but unable to achieve it.
A lot, I think
I guess we have to be grateful for the things we have
This is lovely, sad and sweet, @iamthegray. Thank you for sharing your story with the #fiftywords challenge group! (I'm very sorry it took me several days to read and comment.)
Thanks for your kind words
I'm very happy that you like it
And you don't have to apologize. I also have to check out the other entries but I've been feeling somewhat lazy.
You're doing a great job
Blessings
