G is for . . . THE GARDEN OF LOST SOULS

Welcome to The Blogging from A-Z Challenge April 2014! This year, I’m offering up a story – each one 100 words or fewer - for each letter of the alphabet.

Some are heartfelt, poignant, sweet. Others are…not. 

I hope you enjoy them.

THE GARDEN OF LOST SOULS

Everyone in Beth’s family grows gorgeous gardens of flowers, fruits, vegetables.

Withered limbs sprout.  Mangled faces twist to the sun. Grotesque, misshapen heads bow as she walks among the rows.
