What Makes You Feel

# 2:

mist hushes throes of lament as kin's shadow leaves...my breath fails to rise.

Nette, sounds like a magic mist. The interplay between the mist and breath makes me think about what it all means and how something is left behind and something is lost. Take care!

Exquisitely penned, Nette. A surefire winner. Moves me greatly too. ~ Gershon

Dear Nette,your one line is hauntingly beautiful—so much emotion in so few words. It feels like a quiet moment of grief suspended in time. Deeply moving...Hugs

Oh, I was instantly transported to the good-bye memories that I have for all my relatives. Everyone lived in the same state, Mom and Dad's peps, while we moved a great deal. My parents did their best to visit them every summer. Oh, the dreaded good-byes, it is good that I still share them with some cousins. I goofed this contest's instructions all kinds of up. I must laugh. Loved this ... CayCay

And a spiritual event it should be in the blurring silence of journey's painful end. Great entry in seventeen syllables, Nette!

A powerful Monoku write. You told a story in just one line. "Good Luck" We both did this one. Have a lovely day writing away..................
