Vonnie, this is gorgeous. I’m fascinated by writing that trusts the reader to swim a little before they fully understand where they are, and this absolutely does that. Half teh time I felt like I was deciphering an ancient fungal hymn and yet the emotional core still landed perfectly -- grief, inheritance, longing for someone who shaped you...
Also: “She did not wait for anything. That is why I want her back.” Oof.
wow, you crushed this prompt
Thanks, man! That's gonna make my whole day!
Wow. That's awesome

Getting praise like this from you may be as close to touching star stuff as an author can get.
