RE: This is Just To Say

It might be said that this story represents the intersection between science and art, but implicit in that statement is the idea that science and art are separate entities. As your character suggests, they are not. It is impossible to contemplate the universe, as a poet, and not contemplate the physical reality of it. And, it is impossible to contemplate the universe as a scientist, without feeling the poetry of it.

Well done. Your characters' motivations come alive on the page, as do the scenes you describe. The prompt works beautifully here. One would never know you had to work it in.

Thank you for sharing this story with us and for engaging with your fellow authors.

Thanos so much for this perfect interpretation of the intention of my piece. I was grateful for the prompt that added a little more richness of human emotion. One of the fun things about writing is editing and redrafting. As always thanks so much for the opportunity to be read.
