Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, Lit! Yes there will be more eventually, although I'm very busy right now so it will take a while. I want to finish the second part before I start publishing, so there won't be any delay and also to take pressure off my team.
I love sleeping because of the dreams. And I often think of stories I could write and, if I'm really lucky, they become dreams. But when I was a kid I really, really hated having to go to bed. lol Thank you for the review!
The Pool
The water surface glitters in the sun,
beckons us over to come and have fun.
Little leaf boats only need a push
Clothes fly behind the elder bush.
Naked in a mad dash
Jumping in a big splash
Frozen we shiver
And blue lips quiver
Then strong arms grab us
Mom’s making a fuss
And the bathtub becomes soon
A spaceship to the moon.
Wild Dreams
I know you well
Many stories to tell
And so much yet to see
No time to sleep.
What will happen at night
when I’
Thank you, Def! After the slow start of the story, at least action-wise, I thought an end with a bang would be fitting.
Almost all the loose ends are tied, one last chapter to get the rest.
Thank you, Rosicky! 'Equity in the relationship'. That's a clear yes. Many people might have expected for Diarmad to be the dominant partner, and he will be, but only when Noël let's him.
Peter, I'm sorry for answering so late. As always you got my intentions perfectly, this time regarding holly with its blood red berries and of course ivy, one of my favorite plants.
'Lord Noël'. I couldn't resist, although for him...he'll need a while to get accustomed to the title.
Thank you for another great review.
The Holly and the Ivy
Chapter Thirteen
I clutch the overloaded breakfast tray with both hands so as not to spill the juice -Man. Keith really overdid it this time.- while pressing down the door handle with my elbow. The red bed curtains are still closed, but I know the one facing the window will be open.
Rounding the corner, I look directly into Diarmad’s dark blue eyes. Is that a hue of silver? What did I do now?
And here it comes. “Do not tell me you went to the kitchen like that.”
Holdin
I should have passed cyber hankies maybe, lol. Yes, Carlos comment made me grin and, very briefly sorry, lol.
Thank you for your comment and always, your help. *hug*
'Reality is seldom ideal.' Yes. I was tempted to make it ideal, but in the end it would have weakened the story idea. Thank you for the review and the help, Cia.
'Five hankies.' Made my day, Def. Thank you for your kind words. It usually takes me a while to write a story/chapter, so for me I wrote this very fast. I'm glad it is so well received.
'Such a roller-coaster of emotions.' Was exactly what I wanted to accomplish. Thank you For describing your thought and feelings. I'm so pleased, lol. I'm sure they will find each other again. Maybe I'll revisit them in a short story.
