Keep writing and sharing.
A well trained horse and a priceless moment between horse and rider. An excellent poem written by Pony Tale. It always makes for great writing when the subject matter is a horse and a man. They have been inseparable through the eons of time. Thanks for sharing this superb poem.
Does talking to one's self qualify as a verbal "Dear Me?" I wonder? Or maybe I'm just getting old. Who knows. I do think your "Dear Me" is a great idea and should always have a place in writing lore. Thanks so much for sharing this inspirational memo with us.
"I have a dream" so sayeth the late Martin Luther King. Waiting for this particular letter was the right thing to do. Judging from it's content and unbridled generosity of the writer in this end he would succeed in his endeavor no matter what tried to stop him. The human spirit remains strong. Thanks for sharing.
A great little prose on the Lord and bubble wrap. A very original subject for your prose and interesting ending with a deep psychological and theological conclusions. Thanks for sharing this wonderful religious prose and keep writing. I detected no errors in spelling or grammar.
An excellent piece of writing. Jamie found out much too late that fate usually comes out a winner and few ever really know when it's coming or the hour of their own demise. Anyway, her view down the stairs was her omen and fate. Very nicely penned story segment.
I loved your comparison of change to a summer storm. Some of us have difficulty accepting change and it takes a storm in our soul to get there. I especially liked the powerful image of line ten. It established the writer's craftsmanship in writing. Well done.
I never heard of a French-fry as grounds for a divorce. I suppose it could be though. He did play it smart in the end and what an ending it was. Very nicely crafted flash fiction story. You had me laughing at the end. Sometimes we argue about the most insignificant things in life and that's a good one. Thanks for sharing and keep writing.
A pleasant surprise ending and monkeying around to boot. I liked this light hearted work of fiction. You held it in check until the very end and that is what it takes in flash fiction.
Excellent story plot and good attention to detail. Spelling and grammar ok. Keep sharing.
To find our own identity. Who knows where that might lead in the end. Many people spend a life time searching for their vocation and some just know from the beginning. Rarely does a vocation find them. In the interim they find life and love. Keep writing and sharing.
That's the just of being so tiny and new. What a wonderful way to look at it and a beauty of a picture, of a moment encapsulated in time. Very nicely conveyed in so little words. This was a wonderfully written scene in the life of a child. Keep sharing.
Great imagery in this one fine poem. It flows like silk in its descriptiveness and tantalizes the senses all the way through. It is masterfully crafted by a real poet. Very nice work my friend. If I could give it ten stars, I would . Keep sharing more of these.
Ray sounds like the perfect husband and gentleman. Also he sounds like your best friend. That my friend is a recipe for a long and loving relationship in anyone's book. It sounds like you two have been together for a long time. I don't think it will end any time soon. He's a keeper. Nice writing and keep sharing.
That is a splendid comparison of your soul and the universe. Both are works of art in the all encompassing creation. However, it was the second half of your poem that really caught my attention with " the space inside myself." That stopped me in my tracks. Very nicely penned poem my friend. A pleasure to read. Keep sharing.
It is refreshing to read a humorous story occasionally. This fit the bill for me tonight. Thanks my friend for brightening up my day with an old fashioned prank. It was just what the doctor ordered. I'm sure with this great bit of writing it will have the same effect on other readers. Thanks for sharing.
I wish the Royal orb would pay us a visit here in western NY State. The weather has been windy, cold and crappy for weeks. We're all getting sick of it. You poem gushes with heat and sweat that bakes the soul and lets tempers flare. A very nicely written poem. Keep sharing.
You lied to me again. Sounds like a movie script of a soon to be divorced husband. If she lied that much I would have shown her the door! Come to think of it I've been there and done that many years ago. Thanks for penning these very down to earth lyrics. Have you ran these lyrics by anyone yet? I think they would work well in the C/W circuits. Thanks for sharing.
An excellent septolet on display here for everyone to peruse at their leisure. Nicely worded with great visual imagery pictured as the ornaments. Well written and beautifully displayed my friend. Keep up the wonderful writing and sharing with the rest of us.
Carla's one mean lady and a real gold-digger for sure. Poor guy, he really screwed up and he knew it in the end and had a rude awakening to how far Carla would go to get what she wanted. Too bade for this guy. He'll never know peace after death. Excellent well penned fiction. Keep sharing my friend.
Yes, I would love to have the one's that got away. Some of them were superb starting lines and once erased from the mind, they don't always answer up when called. Yup, everyone who writes knows the feeling. It is a lesson to be learned by all of us. Nicely presented poem. Thanks for sharing.
There is usually a reason for everything and this was a perfect example of it. I liked the ending and his answer. Sometimes it takes pure persistence and fortitude to get the answers you seek and sometimes the answers are what you expected and sometimes not. But the answer is always the prize. Thanks for sharing this finely written flash fiction.
There is too much violence in the modern world and too little action to halt the carnage on the streets and in our schools. Sadly violence seems to rule the day. Your poem hits a chord with many who have lost a loved one. Keep writing and sharing your work.
You have a good start here and now you need to finish it. I liked your description of the Manticores and their scorpion tales. Interesting creatures. I think what you may have here is the beginning of an e-book. It has the earmarks. Go with it.
Betrayal has a very high price tag and this story displays it very well. Thanks for sharing this tantalizing story and her majesty's rise to the throne. There's plenty of room to expand with this story. A nicely penned story my friend. I detect no errors. Keep sharing.
Your double nonet is very interesting. I don't think I'm familiar with them but I know this was exceptionally well penned. I loved the shape and the content both. I am especially fond of that last three lines. They are truly beautiful my friend. Keep on sharing.
