Death By Broken Heart
by Leann DS
Elephants go die to a mass graveyard full of bones. Maybe is just a myth but judging by your notes, it's possible. Your entry for the New Arrival Flash Fiction contest is very sad. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
I peg this as a winner--I'd say same even if this were not a small-pool new-arrival contest but a site-wide contest. Stunning and powerful--and heartrending.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello Leann.
This is outstanding. I am familiar with the relationships between Elephants. They are remarkable creatures. The story portrays the emotional feel of the Elephants at the passing of one of their herd. It is touching and well written.
Good luck in the contest.

Comment from royowen
Such a noble and loving animal is the elephant, everything some humans aren't. They are to be admired, but like a human couple, the one left after a the death of another, likewise dies of a broken, desirous of being where the partner has gone, well done, beautifully and sensitively written Judy, well done, good luck, blessings Roy

You did a great job with your sad story, though it is true. Elephants are one of the smartest animals on Earth. We could learn from them. Your words are descriptive, thoughtful, and poignant.
Best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from damommy
I'm not surprised. Elephants are highly intelligent animals, and have a strong sense of family and friends. How said that poachers even exist to make these animals, or all animals, suffer. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Bill Schott
This story, Death by a Broken Heart, captures a bit of the sadness involved with poaching of elephants. I have heard of the gathering of a herd to mourn the dead.

Elephants are amazing animals. My son has been infatuated with them all his life, so I have 21 years of learning about them under my belt, complements of him. They are just magnificent and intelligent and wonderful. Thank you so much for your ratings and comments. Hugs.
