    Kimo Calendar January’s river stands immobile, frozen hard in mid-ripple, its sweet laughter silenced. Two February shovels rest aslant, weary against the door frame, exhausted by the snow. Improbable March winter aconites bloom where the slow melting drifts await the first robin. Clouds of April’s snowy apple blossoms show off for the ardent bees heedless of the late frost. Brand-new May butterflies sun themselves

    Wonderful review, @mollyhousemouse. I remember reading this story and not wanting to have to wait for the next chapter to post. It's a story that will have have you hooked and drawn in. I'm very glad to see it here this morning.

    Gord

    Parker Owens commented on Mikiesboy's story chapter in Gord

    This poem made me remember the voice of my grandmother singing, and now I wonder who wrote all those songs she sang. We can be giants or gnats, but what you say here is so true: that some people continue to reveal themselves long after they die. Thank you.

    Christmas Eve

    Parker Owens commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in Christmas Eve

    I’m enjoying this new Australian adventure. I hope the wedding goes off smoothly; it sounds as if it has been hard to work around the mother of the groom.

    Chapter 2

    Parker Owens commented on CassieQ's story chapter in Chapter 2

    Jack is falling from grace as quickly as a stone falls from a cliff. I fear the crash when he hits the ground will be brutal. I feel badly for Damon, annoyed at Alyssa and angry at Jack's father. You've done well in bringing my emotions to a lather.

    Bus Crazy

    Parker Owens commented on Valkyrie's story chapter in Bus Crazy

    I love the fine distinctions of Crazy outlined here. I have indeed encountered Bus Crazy, and it's a perfect description. But then the end you devised for this series of encounters topped it all. That was a perfect build up. And thank you for the cookies!

    This is a beautiful story, and one sure to provoke conversation. I’m glad you created a character like William who saw the light in both Daniel and Colin, unlike Hilda who was blind to it.

    Priority Mail

    Parker Owens commented on Valkyrie's story chapter in Priority Mail

    I liked this story very much, and will look forward to trying the soup one day. I’m enjoying all these seasonal treats!

    These are great questions, and I’m fascinated by the range of answers. Of course, I’m glad Michael and Blaine got under your skin. Funny how characters - no matter who brought them to life - can do that. Thank you for another great installment!

    Thanks to both @AC Benus and @Thorn Wilde for letting me go to sleep with a smile on my lips.

    Thanks for this fascinating story. Jair found a way out of this immediate situation, but I fear Joseph will not thank Jair, nor cease to be his enemy from this moment forward.

    Congratulations, Carlos! Fantastic news!

    The Fruitcake

    Parker Owens commented on Valkyrie's story chapter in The Fruitcake

    Another beautiful tale. A perfect fruitcake kind of story. I loved it.

    Happy Birthday, and thank you for sharing so many things that evoke sounds, senses and scents long remembered.

    Officer Wells

    Parker Owens commented on Wayne Gray's story chapter in Officer Wells

    Orson and Wells. Smirks aren’t usually a mile wide, but perhaps you’ll make an exception in my case. I loved this chapter. Mason and Jeremy, then Orson and Joseph find love and comfort at Camp Refuge. You make it sound magical.

    What a wonderful tale. It warmed my heart on an icy day. And the cookies are a variant on one if my favorites! Thank you.
  17. Parker Owens
    Happy Birthday, Gary! I wish you every joy.

    Abattoir Boy

    Parker Owens commented on Sasha Distan's story chapter in Abattoir Boy

    I enjoyed this. I can feel the isolation of both men, which you capture very well. Thank you.
  19. Parker Owens
    These two young men warm my heart. Thank you for this extra chapter on a favorite pair.

    Killers

    Parker Owens commented on Mikiesboy's story chapter in Killers

    Your poem resonates deeply with me; my students encounter roads and crosswalks several times a day, every day. These tragedies could happen to any one of us. Who are we becoming?
  21. Parker Owens
    I’m happy this side dish warmed you. Thank you, tim.

    The Winner

    Parker Owens commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in The Winner

    You didn’t have to end it without telling. I know Chipper is a winner with me. I too, see a long career for him. Maybe a Super Bowl halftime appearance next year? Thank you, thank you for allowing me the privilege of reading and working on this.
  23. Parker Owens
    Happy Birthday, Dodger! May there be many more to come.
  24. Parker Owens
    Thank you, Dugh. You are most kind.
  25. Parker Owens
    You, too, have been one of the great joys for which I’m grateful. Thank you.
