The line 'these garments spread out before me' speak so beautifully, forlornly, pitifully.... of dreams lost. I loved the ending for I was fooled and assumed it was the soldier who died. Beautifully written. | |

This choked me up, but in a good way, if that's possible. During wars, so many are sacrificed. This was a good reminder of that, that the families of soldiers and civilians suffer too. Even when the wars are "won". | |

This is another lovely tale, thenarration so stark and simple. I love the twist at the end - I thought it was the girl's POV, but it reminds us that civilians died as well. Jay Author Reply: Thanks for your comments - I'm glad the twist is working out the way I meant it to. | |
