This is beautiful. Truly, honestly, tear-inducing beautiful. I'm a Spanish speaking anon who loves the English language, who ravels in its fluidity, its musicality, it's taste. The image of little England born without words broke my heart: words are our world, what defines us, what makes us what we are. I can't imagine a world without words but as a void, black and empty hole.
Commenting here to echo the sentiments, because you have said everything I wanted to say, and put it more perfectly than I could. Thank you, author, for writing such a wonderful little story. (And thank you, Spanish-speaking anon, for demonstrating the fluidity of English so poetically.)
