Comment from sgalletti
Ahhhh...my kind of love story! It's not easy to write a complete story with all the story elements in only 55 words. You set a scene, have characters, a beginning, middle, climax and end. Did you consider naming your characters? I'd love to see John vs. He. Also, what about a dash as opposed to elipses after serenity? I believe it is more accepted. Finally, take out the spaces to have the piece beside the art work, or add more speaces to put it below the art work LOL! Good luck! Hugs, Sue

Comment from Bellringer
Bob, very nice work here. You used the 55 words well to create a resplendent scene of youth and demonstrated the power of love which transcends age. It was also great to see that the confident woman did the proposing. Blessings, Hector

Comment from hager
In a few words you have taken me through a couple of season, a courtship. You brought life into the scenery you have created, by flowers coming alive along with his heart... in such a mellow and peaceful way, but you have travelled with this 55 words write like a jet in under 3 seconds... across the horizon... Nice.... Great word choice.... Bill

Comment from Spiritual Echo
Drling man, may I repeat, how good it is so good to have you back. I'll look forward to may more posts and will enjoy every single one.
This is a budget contest, restricting words, but expecting brilliace in the economy.
You don't fail to deliver on the creativeness of the challenge. I do hope you have room for another word in this one sentence.
'She cherished confidence of her heart.'
I believe it should be THE confidence, and should there be no room for another wod, I'd change it to heart's confidence. Hugs, ingrid

Comment from Soledadpaz
Well, that was fast.
The line: "She cherished confidence of her heart" makes me wonder.
Is she calling him her heart?
Or does she cherish confidence in her heart?
It works either way.
Beautiful story, Bob.
