"The stars are viewed best from a prone position"
Prone is on your belly face down, what kind of stars will you see from that position?
The dictionary defines prone as, "lying flat, especially face downward." Note the word 'especially'. That does NOT mean exclusively.
To those who put the definition of "prone" above a very nice and quietly sensual story, I think that the New Yorker magazine might need some new critics
I really liked your story and the progress it portrayed.
To the few of you who chose to complain about choice of the word "prone". To most individuals, the word prone suggests lying down. If you feel it necessary to "pick the fly shit out of the pepper", you should be working for an elementary school where it would be appreciated, not here where an author is trying to project a tale to entertain people.
A very sweet reunion of two souls who could have connected years earlier,given different circumstances.
Good read some times a change of luck is at the top of the next hill. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome story! I hope they live long and prosper!
5 STARS. And thank you, FLrider.
