the spider and the fly page 9

the spider and the fly page 9 by ric Gustafson


Samson stared at the crowd as he stood behind the heavy weight. It was the last powerlifting competition of the school year and he was tired. Ever since his strength went away, he had lost the last three competitions to Anthony Wheeler.
He noticed that his hair was growing back. Every day this week, he had been getting stronger and stronger. As the competition went on, Anthony Wheeler was doing great and the audience was cheering him on.
When it came time for Samson to lift the weight, the crowd began to boo him. He silently prayed to God. ' God, please forgive them". He looked up to his God in heaven. " Please give me the strength to lift this heavy weight one more time".
Samson put his tired hands on the weight bar and lifted it high into the air.

The End
