My goodness. How beautiful this is in every way. Makes you realize you don't need to be afraid. You have really touched me with this. The song if beautiful and your story short and perfect. I going to have to keep an eye out for more of your work. Very moving. I loved it. I would change nothing.

Love it - most stories start out quiet and build to the noisy crescendoing climax - this one does the opposite. My favorite line is "But for some reason, they couldn't hear me say, "I love you." It so perfectly captures what I imagine a dying person's thoughts might be. One couldn't ask for a more beautiful, peaceful, ending (I'm talking about life and your story).

Faith in God, internal power, spirit and strength of mind is more effective, so you could only visualize angel's intervention and you were taken for a fly into the beautiful cloud as if you were in heaven; other beside you or nurses could never see; well said, well done. Liked and enjoyed the read. Write to Inspire, Change.

"Fly Away"
Was a flash Fiction Contest Entry rich in Theme and Imagery.
It read well and it Flowed well with No Grammar issues as well.
...
Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned perfectly.
...
Good luck with this and have a Blessed day.

I wonder if there is an awareness of passing?
I know many people do believe it is so, but I'm undecided.
Believing is a personal matter.
I wonder why her loved ones couldn't see the larger-than-life angel?
I also wonder why she expected they would?

Is this fiction, or faith?

Best of luck.

Peace, Lee

    Thank you for the excellent review and kind comments. Since this is me, and I?m still here, I?d say this is both fiction and faith based. I have been at the side of three dying relatives. My mother saw angels about just before she went, and it wasn?t the nurses. She kept pointing and asking, ?don?t you see them?? I view both life and death as a Christian. I had this vision, or dream, about a month ago. I thought I?d turn it into a short story.

    Thank you so much for the excellent review and kind compliments, dear Dolly. I?m glad you thought it was realistic that?s what I was going for. This is how I imagine death would be like, a sweet release from earth to heaven and into the arms of Jesus. Sending you my best as always, Sally xo

Happy Wednesday to you. Thank you for sharing your flash fiction story with us. To tell a story in so few words is difficult, I think you executed well. Good job and good luck in the contest.
