“The Woods' Whisperer” by Day Goncalves

Submitted to Contest #86

What if trees could talk? How many wonders do you think lie there? How many secrets have people whispered to the woods and how many secrets have actually been heard? There’s an old legend in my hometown, how old? you would ask, as old as the old wood. A man that grew up as a tree, he would not speak in the language you and I are talking right now, nor move, he just laid there under the good sun, and at night he would walk between the trees, you would mistake him for a pine or a cedar, not a baobab, he's slim like the trunks of the darkest tr...

“Burning Daisies” by Day Goncalves

Submitted to Contest #86

It's that day of the year again. Boys go crazy, girls go crazy, parents too. Now, you don't probably know what I'm talking about, no, it's not Christmas or Valentines, Passover neither, it's Daisies Day, and I absolutely hate it. Here in Springlake people live like it's a fairytale, everything is cottagecore, it's a small village in the countryside, you see, every house has plants of every kind, we have a river and women of old age get to wear flower crowns. Me? well I bake bread with meemaw, Lavender bread. I've been living with my grandma ...

“Ocean's Deep” by Day Goncalves

Submitted to Contest #83

I was ten, my mother took us to our beach apartment for the weekend. My brother was too young to remember, but I do, I do remember everything, and I know what happened. I've always felt a kind of transcendental attraction to the sea, I grew up in that apartment but we then moved to the city and since then we used it as a holiday house, attraction? sure, but not love. It had been a while since the last time we stayed there, my grandfather died, mom wanted to rest, to take a break from the busy life of the city, we ended up spending a weekend ...

“Conspiracy purple” by Day Goncalves

Submitted to Contest #77

-sure boss, I'll close down after getting the cargo. No no, sir don't worry about it, it's, it's just an ugly storm, I'll be fine. Of course boss, you too. Well, now, let's check the cameras. With all these cameras this could be a reality show, about a brave security guard that closes down the building, a very, no, the most dangerous work.

He has a confidential mission, to receive the coffee capsules, in the middle of a storm, in a building all to himsel...
