Hi,
In dVerse’s Prosery hosted by Lisa, she challenges us to incorporate the line ‘In the tender gray, I swim undisturbed’ from the poem “In Sullivan County” by Celia Dropkin, into a piece of prose. It can be flash fiction, non-fiction, or creative non-fiction, but it must be prose and not prose poetry and no longer than 144 words, not including the title. Here is my piece, ‘Into The storm’ 🙂


In winter you have to live, day by day

How one reflects the other; weather and emotion. It’s the sun that always brings us hope, renewal, and a chance to live, love, and laugh again. Happy for Freya.

And that is why Freya is a goddess. We look to her to show us the way. I love her imagining the clear water.

It’s good she recognizes and talks herself through these episodes. And gets stronger! Nice incorporation of the line.

Those gray days sure get us down. Freya finds a deep well of clear water. What a lovely image for drawing from the deep to get past the sorrow of the season. Much enjoyed.
