Jimi, Think Mike is right on this one, pours out like smooth hot chocolate.

A delight to read my friend, and a great submission for this contest.
I enjoyed reading it very much.
Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Ahhhh..I can't believe I'm already out of sixes. Over the summer I read a book called I Gave my Heart to Know this. This piece reminds me so much of it. Extremely well written, poignant. Having been through the fires of war myself, I remind myself when hitting a rough patch, that we should all be grateful to have had survived the war(s) and stand beside each other for ever after.

So well written, and soooooo romantic..You should write for Nicholas Sparks...what a heartbreaker he is..and you..

Excellent story line and character development. Needs some polishing to smooth the flow. Examples: eve sounds contrived, describe the bureau, add-I touched the top shelf and heard a clunk on the old smoothed pine floor, delete-it looks the same- redundant, add John, my tarnished knight-

Keep writing, you create memorable characters.

This talented author never ceases to amaze me and her diversity is second to none in both poetry as well as prose, you take romance contest to a new level. The dialogue between Granny and the child was stunning, and flowed with a charm and heartfelt emotion.

BRAVO MY FRIEND, TAKE A BOW!

To say this was a delightful story is one of my typical English understatements. Written brilliantly, as one would expect from Ms. Savell, I was rooted to the page, revelling in every word which the author allowed to be poured out like smooth, hot chocolate.
Wonderful. Love Mike
