Thin Ice!

That can apply as a metaphor in more than one occasion in our lives. Very well done and you met the contest requirements.

Thanks so much, Carol, for the positive review and five star rating. It means a lot coming from you. I agree. This is a metaphor for a lot of what happens in life.
Thank you for the support.

This is excellent. You used excellent imagery. You were able to write about an interesting topic within the 50 word limit without the dreaded letter 's'. I know that was very difficult. You did a great job. Good luck in the contest. Shirley

Prayer is the best solution for any problem. Your woman in the icy water certainly needs God's help.

You may want to add a few more blank spaces. I missed your first two lines at first because they were over to the right of your picture and I didn't notice them. I caught sight of them when I finished reading through the first time.

Hello writer friend.
You make this look a lot easier than I know it to be. That is good writing. Is it free verse or a story would be my only question. The picture you chose is just about perfect ... mysterious! Ulster

Thank you for the great review and the stars. I tried to format it as a story but demon Eddy would only let me post it this way. Many thanks for the words of encouragement. Your support is much appreciated.

You've told a complete story in less than 50 words.
There were no S's in the story.
I do not see how you could have done more.
Best of luck in the contest.

Your dramatic story has emotion, suspense, danger - all in just a couple dozen words and all without the letter S - well done, a strong entry in this contest :-) Brooke

Good luck with the contest. No "s" in sight and word count correct. There is a story line present in your short piece and it is well done. Your choice of artwork is good, also.
thanks for sharing.
