The points of view -their emotional turmoil as they explore their sexuality (not sure that's the right word, but I'm going with it)- is incredibly insightful.
The whole of this made me smile; thank you for sharing your work us.
Having recently seen the surprise snow reports in New Orleans during the Super Bowl, this seems entirely plausible!
But damn ... to be on your honeymoon and have it not rain on your tropical parade but SNOW? 'Interesting times', indeed.
I love the humor in this; I giggled the whole way through. The bride and groom's 'lets build a snowman instead of a sand castle' attitude, how they just roll with the punches.
Poor Clive! To have been given such a rare opportunity, and then to have been denied it.
This is a great story! I love your use of the mysticism surrounding Stonehenge, and the age-old good vs bad for the greater good battle. And wow, to go back to the time of King Arthur and Merlin? Yeah, sign me up for that trip!
Well done, and quite the page turner.
Random question, somehwat unrelated, is that contest still being held? I'd like to give it a try.
Something about this piece feels ... timeless. I envision an old Victorian home; Elizabeth and Mr Darcy; 'The Notebook'. Beautiful.
'... She doesn't cheat, my love' - I had to think twice about this line. If she was in a relationship and was carrying on with another, then that is cheating and he's a blind fool. But ... if he was so enamored with her upon seeing her for the first time, that he proposed -as impossible as it sounds in today's world of 'marriage now for 1/2 later'- I can completely understand it, and she's no longer a villain.
This is beautiful, and truly romantic. Thank you for sharing it.
I wish there was a 'Like' button for this that I could click on, because there's just no words.
Firstly, I'm so sorry for your loss. Secondly, thank you so much for sharing.
While I don't have personal experience with polyamory, I love menage and reverse harem romance stories and erotica. The way everyone involved comes together to show everyone else that they are accepted and loved, that they'll never be left alone. There's a beauty in that concept that's rare and unique, and damned difficult to find elsewhere.
Your intro was all I needed to know this would be interesting. :) While the first few stanzas are a bit confusing for me (but probably make absolute perfect sense to you), I have to admit 'sometimes is the serious rock/scissors stage' is a great line.
And I especially love the last stanza ... leaving a (.) period where most people read that last invisible word, it truly made me smile. And the stanza is so relevant to the current climate.
I especially like '...it was easier to lie .... to smile instead of cry' -I can't tell you how often I've felt the same way.
I also like 'I didn't want to admit the fact, I cannot spread my wings. And my happiness has melted, into tears and other things.' -I see the weeping angel with her wings folded along her back, an empty bottle of whiskey on the ground having fallen from her hand.
The emotional impact, and the inspired imagery ... wow. Well done.
