      • Damian, it’s my first time ever going this far. Lol. I’ve written a few that got put on the back burner and were never finished, never published, never shared. So I started anew and this particular story has my heart, it just comes to me so effortlessly. I’m so glad you are enjoying, it means so much. Thank you my friend. xx

      I am enjoying this story a lot and I know a lot of Italian-American people who have that Jersy accent. Love the imagery.

    With Cupped Hands

    —A Griot’s Song for Gambia— I sing of this land where rivers speak—while The Gambia flows in her verse,as narrow as a whisper,yet wider than a mother’s hug. For its waters are never silent—humming with shouts of traders,drummers, poets, and dreamers,naming...

    • Beautifully penned, P.G. The plot thickens, I like the shift in perspective, a different character a different point of view. Also reveals information to fill in the gaps between characters that only the reader is privy to, nicely done. Great flow on the information in the dialogue revealed by Mr. Knight. I think you’re a natural at this writing thing. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Thank you Damian, that is exactly what I wanted to do here. Give a different pov and fill in those gaps. I appreciate you! xx
