A little late for me to post a Monday 100 daily story, but I really had a hard time thinking what to write about... so I basically typed whatever came along, caught the tail end of this and it seemed good enough to keep.
I've been doing this 100 word story on and off for the past two years, I decided late July that I'll see this one to the end of one year of continuous writing. I'm finding it hard at this point to consistently dig new stories, and find myself wanting to rewrite old ones. Anyone else suffer that? Or am I just crazy?
*updated
Going through past stories that have yet to get updated with pictures, or even shared with some g+ communities. Here's an old post getting a face lift, and a share.
Enjoy.

08/26/2013 (Monday)- Time Isn’t Cheap
Water rushes
over the stones in the stream,
Polishing them
to the color of worn pennies.
Nature frames
the miser musings of today,
The change
tomorrow brings,
And yesterday’s
repose.
The stream burbles
along its bank,
A nickel and
dime erosion of earth.
Pebbles and small
stones jingle-jangle along as they’re washed away,
Their sharp edges eroding into smooth rims,
As they tumble
in the current to their final deposits.
Time advances
over the stones in the stream,
Her clockwork
face smiling as she grinds them down.
Temporal chronology
frames our present,
Uncertainty
shadows our future,
Forgetfulness
takes our past.
