The letter
Maggie opened the letter.
Maggie opened the letter.
“Maggie, I’m sorry I didn’t have the courage to tell you face to face” it read.
“I had to leave, I didn’t have a choice”.
“I’d known for a while, it was inevitable”.
Maggie’s eyes filled with tears
“I’m sorry I died and left you, always remember that I love you”.

Great to see you Claire and thankyou honey. I really thought you'd forsaken me or even worse that I'd done something to offend you. xx
Very touching :(
Nothing like stabbibg me in the heart with such a sad piece of writing! :-)
It was very well written. Thank you.
I'm so used to your "Flash Fiction" having a humourous twist that I wasn't expecting that one today!
Very well written even if it is sad.

That is quite a talent you have, to write a comprehensive piece in only 55 words. I have read some of your others and they are very good.
I love writing but could not do it in 55 words. I write like I talk - too much!
Odat ((hug)) x
Thankyou Cath, you should give it a try it's easier than you think! :)
I love how you accent your 55 with such beautiful photo imagery.
And such a sad 55.
Sad because it's words are powerful.
I know everyone has used this word already, 'sad.'
But, it is sad, because Maggie is sad.
But, in the end it's sort of happy.
He left her wanting to be happy.
To know that.
It's gorgeous.
Thanks for comin' by mine.
Be well, Ake.
Ah, you understood exactly what I was trying to convey Strumpet, thankyou. :)
I'm going to give this a try...I promise...once I figure out what you're doing, lol!
