The Sparkler

On December 29, 2016 By Reena SaxenaIn Fiction, Flash Fiction, Microfiction

The sparkler spread warmth, light, hope and demonstrated multiple paths to branch out.

It consumed itself in the process, the memories remaining red hot, albeit for a short time.

The transience brought back memories of her mother’s suicide.
