The words this week are: WIDE,   ORANGE,   CROCODILE,   WITHIN  and  COLLAPSED

As my world collapsed around me in bright orange flames I pulled courage I didn’t even know I had from within myself. I pulled myself through the quickly widening doorway, looking around for my family. I had to find them quickly. With my home caving in around me, I ran. Hard and fast. I kept my brothers favorite stuffed toy in my mind as I went. A small, soft, green crocodile. He got it when we went to the zoo. He had to beg mum for it but she’d agreed. Eventually. He would be with it now, alive or not.
