Joyce Fox

Liquid Sunshine

A bright yellow kitchen was something I had always dreamed of having. I knew it would look cheerful and give the impression of being filled with liquid sunshine. My first husband could well afford to have our kitchen redecorated but he preferred it the way the previous owner left it so that was how it remained, blue and cheerless—just like our marriage…

Author Joyce Fox teases the reader with a turbulent twist in her compelling yet somber narrative, “Liquid Sunshine.” In this piece, Fox relays the tensions between joy and pain, love and loss, illuminating the colour yellow in a brilliant manner.

Number 144

”I don’t know what to tell you,” he said. “But you’re dead. As dead as a doornail.”
She looked around the room, her eyes squinting at the yellow paint that adorned the walls.
“I just didn’t think heaven would look like this,” she said…

The Leap

My love of flying grew from this:
The rope slung in a “U” from side of the big top roof
to the other. The man stepping in, pushing it to a “V”
and the rope itself sheathed in cotton, thick and supple…
