STORY STARTER
Submitted by Evelyn Allen Vale
"Two go in, and one comes out" is the start to a dark nursery rhyme that everyone in the town knows.
Write a story which features this rhyme and its tale.
“Grey”
Two girls
Sweet as sugar
Pure as fresh snow
Two go in
One comes out
But where did the girl go?
A town once of joy
Sadness fallen over
Hovering above the town
Like a smothering cover
The remaining girl
Scarred permanently
Never speaking again
From what she saw that day
So we will never know
What the fate is
Of that girl
The single word
The remaining ever muttered
After the incident
“Grey”
And the rest will be left to ponder
