Calendula Sunrise - Comments

Vic, you have a way with words that is just so poetic it amazes me. I love the way you just create this scene where it makes my chest go soft and mushy, like I have no idea what summer smells like, but I can imagine it must be something warm and flowery. As I read your first three sentences, I felt like time was slipping through their fingers quickly? For me it went from a summer's day, to evening, and then when the sun finally set from the horizon. It's beautiful how their time together doesn't feel like reality, but things like bees makes her realize where she is and she soon sees that things are coming to an end.

UUUUUGGGGGHHHH, VICTORIA WHY ARE YOU SO GIFTED??? That last paragraph is beautifully constructed and I can't put it into words how tragic it makes me feel inside? Like, I don't want for this love to wither for them? Why can't it be summer all the time? Let's build them a greenhouse so things don't fade!

I love you and hate you for this.

Stop making me feel things!!

But keep writing these gorgeous words!

This piece literally took my breath away. I don't think I can give the proper words/credit that this piece deserves in beauty and such!
You have such a gift for writing!

This was absolutely beautiful from start to finish. I loved the scene you painted and I could actually see myself lying there among the flowers. And I adored the slow twist of the seasons and of falling out of love with someone. So, so, so GOOD. <3
