April 1 2021, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less), write a story about a swift passage. You can take inspiration from any source. Who is going where and why. What makes it swift? Go where the prompt leads!.
I wrote this in honour of Sue Vincent. You can read her beautiful blog here.
The candle flickered her spirit left. Free from earth’s tethers and life’s pain she breathed again. Across the night sky lit by stars she flashed around the planet spreading love as she went.
Alighting on her Moors, her spirit’s home. The stones welcomed her with love, they knew her worth. Cold winds could not chill her just carry her wisdom.
Behind she left us grieving, family and friends alike. Her legacy will last forever as will the hole she left in our hearts. My last email to her said “sleep well.” Sue’s passage after death was swift to bliss.

It’s a very hard one to accept , I really can’t get my head around it yet 💜💜

This is truly lovely Willow, and Sue would have loved it. I can see her drifting on the moors, at peace and at one with them in their embrace. It is so hard to believe she has gone, but her legacy remains.
