Tonight we feast on old promises, your almost forgotten no-good solemnly swears, truths that only raggedy girl knows now. Piglet and I went back to Mulberry to catch dragonflies; while Mr. Toad went to the book place to browse rural fiction (as always, too high on the uppermost shelf). I just wish I could race Rabbit again; cast spells with the witches, dust shelves with the book. Trip down cobblestones and tsk-tsk, said the turtle (knowing everything's got a moral, even silly things, like shells). We'll live together in a cottage by the sea; just Piglet and Rory and Rabbit and me.

ReplyDeleteEven the shortest of your texts make me go lost in another world. In a tremendous world I do not want to leave...

I love this little story. It makes me think of my childhood in a sad sort of nostalgic way. (I wish I could go back too.)
ReplyDeletemine too, thank you <3
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of feasting on old promises. I can see them sitting in jars, unkempt, and for some reason it's comforting.
ReplyDeleteI love reading your posts, no matter how late I get to reading them :)
I cannot even begin to tell you. How precious your words are to me. That rhyme in the final line - oh, it made me tingle with delight. Every word you write is like embarking on an adventure. I wish I had possessed even half the talent you have when I was your age. You will achieve great things, my fairytale friend. I just know it. Love, xxxxx
ReplyDeleteI love this incredibly much. The cottage floated out to sea such a long while ago, still makes me a bit sad these days.
ReplyDeleteThis feels so beautiful and sad, but in a different sort of way, like an antique that used to be brightly-coloured. I love the first line especially.
ReplyDeletethank you so much, girls <333
ReplyDeletethea, if i had half the talent you possess, i would have twice the talent that i have now :)
oh julia :( mine too, i wish to look for it some-day
Ah, so many of my childhood (forever) heroes here. how I wish I could live in a cottage by the sea with them all, too. x
ReplyDeleteYour writing just gets better and better, I swear it.
ReplyDeleteDearest,
ReplyDeleteI havent forgotten your letter. Things have just turned around a tad and all of a sudden I have become busier with more than I know what to do with. I shall most likely be replying mid next week, but you are in my thoughts as always <3
xx and hugs

ReplyDeleteJhordyn, don't you worry about it! I can't wait to hear from you starling, I'm so excited for you. Whenever you get the chance. x
Oh, dearest, you are so wonderful and magic. As though everything you touch would leave a little trial of silver glitter. Beautiful, always. xxxx
ReplyDeletethank you <3 xxxxxxx
