This story is short and sweet. You have a lovely way with words that I never get tired of reading. The artwork is perfect for the subject. I wish you the best in the contest.

I loved this brief piece of flash fiction. It was sweet and romantic, and it had elements of fantasy. You used your words well. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

What a bittersweet poem! It gives a lot of impact and feeling in just a small amount of words. It has a nice flow, so I will say good luck in the "Flash Fiction" contest.

    Thanks Jodi. Flash isn't my norm...I write mystery and crime, but I needed a short break.... coming up for air.

Ooo that is romantic. I have just discovered flash fiction and have started to seek it out. It am really enjoying what I am finding. It i amazing what you have been able to do with just a few words. I feel like I have been on a roller-coaster! Thank you.

Hi Carol,
A shooting at a wedding, how very tragic! I know stuff happens, maybe a disgruntled ex, maybe a drug issue, or just random act of violence, who knows? Tragedy is tragedy, though. Love the one night they had together in her dream.

Take care,
Rhonda

    It happened in our town and I hate to think how times are changing. Once a peaceful town and now.... a man stabbed 11 people including the mailman and four died. An 18-year-old boy who was employed at Walmart was attacked by a man who grabbed a knife from a shelf and stabbed him in the back. It's frightening.

You rascal! I was thinking-- "Romance? This is MURDER!"

(LOL)

Then it dawned on me, this is you!

Of course everything will turn out peachy!

Great Flash!

    It's a bit screwy but it just came into my head in the early morning while I waited for the girls. The good, the bad, the memories. Sad part is there was a shooting at a wedding in my town.

    A genuine shotgun wedding? Wow.

Well, well, well author. This piece is enchantingly frightening. Like the original fairytales.

I wonder if anyone has ever been shot at the altar? Gosh, hope not.

    I got the idea from a shooting that happened in my town not too long ago. Terrible and heartbreaking. Thanks for the review.

    I based this on an incident that happened in my town. So cruel and unhappy for all. I can't imagine saying I do to a forever and having it ripped away.
    Hugs, Carol

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is an excellent flash fiction story. It has a beginning, middle, and end. It is interesting, so to keep my attention. I do not see any need for improvement. Have a blessed day.

Aside - I might have repeated the words "together forever" at the end. Why didn't you?

    You were right...I guess I did not notice that I had changed it in one place....Now it says together forever...thanks. I appreciate your suggestion and the review.
