The Old Man [13+] This is a short story that captures the emotions and may leave a few tears by it's end |
Hello tj-turkey-jobble-jobble-hard-J! This review is given on behalf of "Game of Thrones" . Good, sad story. Poor old man. I wanted to scream, someone step in and take care of him! But how many old men and women are out there facing the same kind of loneliness and self-dependence every day? It's a sad story, indeed. The Title and Description - A good title that grabbed my attention and the story piqued my curiosity to urge me to read on. The Storyline/Plot - A little old, blind man goes to sit on the park bench every day. He clinches an old photograph that he can not see and a necklace, both belonging once to an old friend of his. Though he could no longer see, a smile still shone on his face and behind his blind eyes. He was new in town, and remained an enigma. Both at the end of his life and in death. The Characters - The main character puts off an energy of peace and acceptance. Of a life once lived of happiness, caring, and love. The Setting - You did a nice job with the descriptions and details that helped me envision each scene as I read. Well done! Suggestions - I didn't find any typos or mistakes. Your writing is good as is. What I Liked Best - The overall feel and message of the story. Thank you so much for sharing your writing with us. I enjoyed it.
