Climb

By Tessa Dean May 2024

John, with heart pounding and sweat trickling down his forehead, attempted to climb the tree. However, the lower branches, too flimsy to hold his weight, betrayed him each time he put his foot on and pulled himself up. He would hit the ground, thankful for its softness, except for the roots that were showing through the ground. 

The stronger branches were out of his reach. He would need a ladder to hold his weight and reach the more solid branches above his head. He looked around, but his dad’s shed was locked, and he didn’t have a key to it.

Published by Tessa

My name is Tessa Dean and I am an author and blogger. My writing styles vary and I love writing using prompts. I am also writing my first book, a Memoir entitled "Government Property - A Memoir of a Military Wife".  This is being published on the blog rather than the traditional way. I am putting up chapters as I go along. I keep my blog filled with useful content, stories, and poems. Plenty to keep you busy. I have also been interviewed by blogs and had other posts published on many different blogs. I also wrote a series of articles on Bipolar Disorder for IBPF (International Bipolar Foundation). I am in my 60’s and disabled which allows me plenty of time to write to my heart’s content. I live in southern New Jersey and have 3 children and 5 grandchildren. My oldest grandchild is a Sargent in the United States Marine Corps.

      3. Oh, me too–always have been a bookworm. But I did love being outdoors, and nothing was better than taking a book outside and reading under the shade of a big old tree in our yard 🙂

      4. I simply wasn’t an outdoor person. I don’t like the heat or the cold. Spring is my favorite season and not overly hot days. Just warm enough not to need a jacket or sweater.

    1. I am sure it was locked for a reason. Too many people helping themselves to his belongings. If caught they would say they were borrowing something like the lawn mower, etc.
