Another good character expander/drabble.
Although I'm not familiar with Hamfest at all (if there is anything to be familiar with), I feel like I now know everything I should. In a short space, you managed to 'sum up' what must surely be at the core of Hamfest.
Really nice use of POV and 'voice'. |

Wild flowers are pretty enough, but they scatter their seeds as can, come what may. That’s not what a gardener wants.
Ugh. No, we want them to be all that we hate. Stable, well grounded, safe and void of an adventurous bone in their body so we always know just where to find them.
Sam’s had all I’ve got to give, now; oh, not letters and such like but things just as important, and I’ve seen them take root and grow in ‘im.
Aye, blessed.
Once again, with the simplest seeming line you have reached into the very heart of something so profound. Exactly as you did in Ships. You know, I just backspaced on a paragraph. My opinion becomes redundant and shallow. I just adore you Aye, blessed indeed. |

Nancy, I really enjoyed this! I think you've nailed the Gaffer's pride in his Sam. Very nice work!
