The sight of the food flooded Natann's mouth with saliva and he had to swallow before he could speak. He began to relate what the patrol had found, prompted by Torslin's brusque questions. The memory of the fal-worms took away the desire to eat. #vss365

There are muscles that are dormant until we awaken to their weakness perhaps after a lifetime of taking them for granted and they mirror the spiritual world the great unknown asleep until we cry out for help then nourish its companionship in years well-lived #sedserio

I found it again this year In the season of the sun It played upon leaf On naked bow of tree It dances now among the windrows This light that makes me cry

The moon in her solitude would light my way, said the little ghost Belle. The moon is good company, the bobcat said. #vss365 #solitude

If she had watched more carefully, she would have known what to expect from her first birth-song. She had tried asking Ussu when her sister had told her she was pregnant. "If you were normal I wouldn't need to tell you." #SciFiFri

A smile as wide as the ocean ferries the storm-rocked in dinghies to port I walk down a road that curves like a smile and tells me meaning is in the gait The sky trades me one smile for all the fumbles in my life without a dark regret #sedserio #TankaThursday #poetrylovers

I want to live, the mother badger said. I want my boys to live. There is no idyllic death, not even the falling snow. #vss365 #idyllic

Mama G sips from her sherry glass. ‘Well, this is #idyllic, Pixie. You & me having a nice chat while Gabriam finishes his important business.’ Ha! Important business! It’s cost him a months worth of last brownies to slink off to the Angel Arms. I smile & nod my head. #vss365

‘This sacred place is just weird. Why does the tree demand bodies? And what has that got to do with the winged figure?’ ‘Without a deep dive into local history and traditions, I’m not sure we’ll ever know the answer.’ ‘How unsatisfying is that?’ Karrion huffs. #1linewed
