Welcome to the three hundred and fifteenth edition of Fiction Monday.
“When it’s over, I want to say: all my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. When it is over, I don’t want to wonder if I have made of my life something particular, and real. I don’t want to find myself sighing and frightened, or full of argument. I don’t want to end up simply having visited this world.” — Mary Oliver, When Death Comes

Word Prompt – RESPITE
The idea is simple―to write. On Mondays, I will post a word prompt here. You have one week to respond with your musings
The expected word count is between 50 and 500. You are welcome to share poetry, non-fiction musings, or fictional pieces. The whole idea is to write, share, and encourage each other.
Don’t forget to add the link to your story in the comments below. On Monday, August 10th I will share your creations here, along with the prompt for the 316th edition.
Happy writing.
