So true, that we seem to operate on a reciprocity basis. I like the way you describe the new Powder's home coming and his new form. The last two paragraphs just make you sympathise with the woman. I hope your luck changes and the rings finally fall within your grasp. Regards TM

Comment from Phyllis Stewart
I always wondered what "Powder" was. Why he disappeared into lightning. << A reference to what? Please elaborate for those of us not familiar with this.
This was intriguing and a good read. I like that you told it from both perspectives.

Hi Phyllis! I have never figured it out...if you can, or are inclined to, try to watch the movie? It's a lovely show...Mary Steenburgen is the star, Jeff Goldblum, and others. VERY different. Let me know if you like it? AND thank you for a great review...I wish I could answer your question...hug! Susan
Comment from TKField
Well, I'm still not sure what this is supposed ton be about, and who Powder is etc. But it is very mysterious and evocative. I wouldn't mind a little more exposition and context here, but what the hey? Ya can't have everything. The guy is really rain personified. I think. Nice ending.

Comment from gifted$1
This read almost more like a poem than a story, but that is what makes it so good and unusual. It makes the reader want to read more and know the characters deeper..but alas, it is a flash fiction story..so you did a good job of not overdoing..nice work

Comment from write hand blue
A well written surreal story. With good imagery
and imagination. I particularly like the interweaving
of the spirits in the form of mist.
A compelling and enjoyable read.
Good luck in the comp... Mel.

Comment from Earl of Oxford
Hi, Susan.
I was intreagued and glued to this original and inspired story.
Wonderful personification of the entity, 'Powder'.
'he did not feel superior, just different' - that's a great way to 'feel' without being a snob or a pretentious bore.
I didn't understand why he had 'red eyes' when mortal, but that didn't matter at all, as the 2nd half of your write was very thought-provoking.
Wonerful atmosphere here.
Well worth my sixer.
Best wishes, earl

Oh what lovely images your story leaves in my mind, Susan. Powder was a great little movie, and I like the way you've taken the story to the next step. Makes me want to see the movie again! Great contest entry, my friend. I wish you the best of luck in the voting booth. Hugs, Bev

And I just saw the ending of it again! (Wed. evening...)What a coincidence that it came on just now! Odd. I came in second! Many great reviews after contest ended! But that's okay...lots of very interesting reviews...I like getting varied responses? Thank you Bev...I just cannot get enough of when you enjoy my efforts. Wow! HUGS to you too! :) Susan

Hi Susan,
I love this imaginative story for the contest. I related to Powder and his journey on earth is believable as your descriptive words personified him. Good writing here and I wish you luck in the contest....blessings, chey
