Thanks, Liz! This was my submission for tinywords...it was rejected hence showing up on my blog. I'm going to try again next time they have an open sub period.
Thank you, Jeannine! I try to pack a punch in as few words as I can - not always successfully (by some editorial standards). I'm working on my craft...every day. = )
Oof! This is great. Love the emotion and story conveyed in such a small space. I was totally surprised, perfect juxtaposition of small, peppy looking poem and scenario with a cupcake that both ended up being so full of human tragedy and sadness. Clever.
It's like a six word story, Bridget, and powerful. I hope you are okay!
