Leann,
Great job on this 50 word flash fiction including the title. Ha! I had to read it more than once to get it.
Go figure.
I was picturing myself on the swing and you changed it all up!

A sweet story so beautifully told ... no wonder it won the contest. Congratulations from one who greatly admires those who are able to say a lot in only a few words... a skill I have never learned. I very much enjoyed this complete little story.

Thank you so much, Miss Mary. I humbly appreciate your kind and supportive comments, and the six star rating! I have been practicing being less wordy, and it is starting to be a lot more fun than it was two months ago. :-) I am so honored that you enjoyed my story. Hugs and blessings to you, and thank you again.

Thank you! You're never too old to get on the tire swing. Try it now! :-) Be careful though. Ha ha. Hugs, and thank you for your rating and review.

This fifty-word story, Lost in the Swing, has the required word count and takes us back to the joys we felt being off the ground and swinging about. Good times passed on.

Loved that his... So much I just voted for it...which made ME feel great because it put you (whoever you are) in the lead by one! Here's hoping you maintain that lead! In my opinion the best submission in the contest! I adore anonymous contests. You KNOW you did well when your work is the sole motivation for the vote!--Karenina

I had to read it twice as I was so into the first image that the "grandma" threw me off. However, when I went back and read understanding grandma is remembering and experiencing it made me smile.

That's pretty awesome! Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for taking the time to really read my story. I appreciate it so much. Hugs.
Comment from Patty Palmer
A very endearing story. It's hard to tell a whole story in only fifty words. You told it very well and I can just picture it exactly. Good luck with the contest.

This was really sweet. I'm so detailed oriented, I doubt if I could complete a thought in fifty words; so, I really appreciate your talent in pulling this off. Great job.

Oh, let me assure you that you can do it! I have been practicing not being so wordy, and it's turning out to be a fun lesson. Thank you so much for your complementary review and comments. I appreciate them so much. I have been working hard. Hugs.

A lovely short story! What a blessing that your grandchild could have the same pleasures as you had as a small child. How wonderful that the memories were renewed - the grandchild on the same tire. Well written.
