    1. They seem to be a bit slow today. I can see it, but it arrived after you posted the comment. Better to have it twice than not at all 🙂

  31. Hello Guys. Reading through other tales on this page, I realized that few of us held a similar feeling, so I have tried small integration of Patricia’s 3 lines, 3 lines by Bikurgurl and 3 of my lines and a few conjoining lines to weave a tale. Hope you relish this.

    Here it goes.
    ———————————————-

    She has been,
    Unaware of his feelings for her,
    And, she hears from within: [3 Conjoining lines]

    “I (Horse-rider) wish to race to him,
    To express your sweet misty emotion,
    But, your fearful heart disapproves, clutches me.” [My 3 lines]

    She sat at the table with pen and paper and a glass of wine for courage, trying to put into words what she had been feeling for a long time but didn’t know how to say. She had to say it now so he would know what was in the deepest places of her heart before it was too late to begin again. She drank some of the wine, picked up the pen and began, Dear John. [Patricia’s 3 lines]

    The courage grew,
    More letters flew,
    And, a wait began,
    The day arrived, when to herself,
    She said: [5 Conjoining lines]

    “Writing daily since our last night together. Aching inside, I eagerly await your letter.
    Longing listlessly for you. I know deep down it’s been too long. My love unrequited.
    Opening the box, I instead receive a letter of your happy engagement.” [Bikurgurl’s 3 lines]

    Now, she has been,
    Aware of his feelings for her,
    And, she hears from within: [3 Conjoining lines]

    “I (Horse-rider) wish to race to him,
    To express your sweet misty emotion,
    But, your fearful heart disapproves, clutches me.” [My 3 lines]
