So the speaker is having and affair with her neighbor's husband. How could they get away with it with the wife sitting on the front porch. She has to know. She has the love of this man. But she probably really doesn't as much as she think's she knows about the wife's life as the last line implies
Congrats on placing in the contest.

Awww. she's only daydreaming, Seeing the handsome neighbour started her on a little mind trip, no actual affair. :o) Thank you for reading and reviewing my work.

Yep, a middle-aged muscular man would get me going too.
pulled another dandelion from my badly overgrown flower bed. -- nice touch with symbolic overtones and reading between the lines.

Hi justjo,
What you wrote for the word flash fiction contest was very nice.
The picture that you put up with it is very great too.
Also using the 102 words worked out well.

Thanks, Kat, for reading my flash fiction. I haven't entered anything in a long time. Recovering from a heart attack in June and a mild stroke in April.

It's too bad that you had so many things wrong with you.

Hi Jo,
I wrote something and don't know if I remembered to save it.
I am very sorry about all of the things
that were wrong with you. I hope you
will be feeling better now.

Comment from Dean Kuch
Dreams of Gone With the Wind, 'ey, JustJo66?
Yeah, I get it. That's one of the greatest romances portrayed in all of moviedom.
Besides, there's nothing wrong with a little healthy fantasizing, provided that you're single of course.
Good flash fiction tail...e-r-rrrr, heh-heh/... I mean TALE.
Ahem...

justjo--
Daydreams, eh? Okay, I buy it. A very small, provocative short story, Nicely done. I am not sure why I don't do these but I don't. I do buy what you have written, or believe in it and that it is just a daydream.
Thanks much jo

Jeff, thank you for the six stars and review. I truly appreciate it. I haven't done much lately. Still recovering from a heart attack in June and a mild stroke in April. Not a lot of brain damage. :O) well maybe some memory loss...hard to tell...I was already having some senior moments. :o)

Sorry about the health problems. We all face them sooner or later, Nah, I wish I had something acutely intelligent to say about them, but don't at the moment. Hang in there.

Comment from Mustang Patty
the daring daydreams will just take over our lives, if we let them. Within the 100 word count, you have given us a complete story - except maybe for the last sentence - but daydreams will pop up like that. Good luck in the contest,

Comment from His Grayness
As far as I can understand, this is a contest entry for flash fiction and within the restraints of that type of contest, I found this to be delightful and offering a "grip" to stay onboard for further delight...which is always the best issue for any writing.
Many thanks for an interesting read! HIS GRAYNESS

Comment from Natalie Walker
This is a good story, with excellent description. I like the comparison of daydreams to weeds, both pop up unexpectedly.
I didn't notice any errors or typos.
Nice work!

Excellent. This story is short but sweet. It is well-written and I enjoyed the ending. The artwork compliments the writing as well. I wish you only the best of luck in the contest.
