Praying only for the best. I will never understand how the people of Russia does not put this tyrant to bed. The army personnel must ask questions since Ukraine had not advance into their nation.

I don't understand it either. Communism and dictatorships are the second most scary things, right below Satan. Thank you for your review and comments.

Hi there,
you did a good job with this. All required letters absent.
"where's Mama, my rose?"- this should start with a capital.
All the best

Thank you very much. You're the first person to point out my typo, so I'm nominating you for a reviewer. I appreciate your help. Hugs.

Oh my, what a horrible ending to a great story. You did a wonderful job with the writing prompt. You had to do some thinking to avoid the letter i as it is in so many words. Nicely done. Best of luck in the contest.

Thank you. It was actually fun to try to write a story without using those letters. The most difficult words to avoid were "his" and anything ending with ING. :-) Thanks again.

Comment from Wendy G
A well written story, and I like the allusion to the sunflowers - the national flower for the Ukraine. This gives double layering to the story, which makes it clever as well as interesting. Informative notes as well. Praying. Best wishes for your entry.

Ha! You are so clever. I did not think anyone would catch that part about the sunflower being the national flower for Ukraine. Since Ukraine has the letter I in it, I couldn't say it, and I had a difficult time trying to figure out a way to make it relevant. Thank you for your kind words and review. Hugs.
Comment from jessizero
Oh wow. This story is impressive. It's even more impressive when you take into account that you didn't use those two letters. Thank you for sharing this!

Thank you. It was definitely a challenge. I didn't realize how often I use words that end with ING. :-) I appreciate the comments and review. Hugs.
