Fly Away Peter

by Stevie Morgan

Even though it is five years since Peter died, Myfanwy still has memories of their time together playing constantly in her head. By choice, she leads a solitary life in their beach cabin on the Welsh coast, her only social contact with cousin Idris and his large and exuberant family. Myfanwy is not unhappy - more emotionally numb.Until the arrival of David...David's determined efforts to seduce Myfanwy are foiled initially with comic effect, but do eventually succeed. Both are stuck in their pasts. Both must let go to be able to start again, and through each other they do. Through David, Myfanwy finds the strength to say 'Fly Away Peter' and seize her own life with vitality and vigour.
