Mountain veiled with snow,
long painful breaths, shorter steps,
till awe parts the storm

Lovely!
So much told in so few words! ❤️
Jay - Thanks for checking out my presentations and your kind words. I love storytelling, but sometimes think I'm out of touch with the current Zeitgeist. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm always working on multiple projects, but I tend to write slowly. I intend to enter the Arid contest so, I will release another story in a week or two. Thanks again for reading.
Hi John - I'm so glad I've discovered your unique and creative way of storytelling. As a fellow 'Vet' I'm scrolling through your presentations, but this one caught my eye since you range your topics from 'Criminal' (which I've written on) and so many eclectic topics. John, I'm just a retired legal writer morphed into a 'Goof-Writer' nothing more. I don't do contests/rewards but I enjoy reading 'Shorts' from all over the world on this marvelous platform. I see you haven't posted much of late. *I've subscribed to you with pleasure hoping to see more of your work. Jay, Jay Kantor, Chatsworth, California 'Senior' Vocal Author - Vocal Village Community -
