Partings by Lisa WilliamsonAnyone who has ever been deeply in love knows words are not required to communicate. Yet oddly these lovers are out of that range of simple telepathy that all lovers enjoy. I felt something more sinister going on when the black shadow brought the horse to a stop before the aching lover who sensed the return of the only man who mattered. He mattered enough for her to forgo touch with anyone until he returned. And he didn't use words to embrace her heart as they reunited after the long separation.  He felt her questions, and she touched his answers, and knew that his horse did as well.Lisa Williamson's Partings charmed me with her metaphors immediately when she likened the color of the main speaker's hair to the autumn leaves, "Bright with golden reds" I enjoyed the short story but felt like someone took the plate away after I ate only a couple of potato chips... Now I want to read more about that character she named, Death.
