Here is one of my 50-word short stories for this week's #fiftywords challenge prompt, wing.

Sometimes an image is all it takes to launch a new story idea.

On the descent, trees and barns came into focus. A bald eagle soared past. She inhaled deeply, exhilarated, happy, flying.
In that moment... “Babe? Will you marry me?”
