Born to Die: The Story of Miss Max, the Minx - a short story in rhyme

I have come to a sad conclusion today when I looked at the calendar and realized what the date really is. I am under pressure to complete a book that I am co-authoring and the deadline is approaching much too quickly. It needs to go to press within a month and I have to spend as much time as I can...

Coming Home

Good morning! Thank you all for your interest, comments and encouragement. I truly appreciate it. I always feel so bad when I can't get back to you or read your blogs right away.

Desperate Dancers

Good morning! Thirty years married to the same man! An accomplishment indeed - for both of us. When we got married we were young and ignorant of many aspects of relationships. Now we are experts on ours. At one time, I felt trapped in a union that seemed loveless, joyless and very lonely. Our... Sign in to see full entry.

A Clown

Good morning! I spent so much time trying to get to everyone to read and comment on their blogs that I have almost no time to post! I pulled this one out of a dusty, musty corner. It is one of the first poems I wrote shortly after I met my muse. But I thought I would share... A Clown The clown has a... Sign in to see full entry.

Together, Always

On the weekend(Thanksgiving), my husband and I got together with another couple to make some plans for our upcoming holidays. They have been married twenty years and we have been married for thirty. Last winter, in a weak moment, when we were hip-deep in snow, we decided to go away together... Sign in to see full entry.

I Smell French Fries and Grease - flash fiction (721 words) in rhyme

Good morning! It is a cold morning with the feel of frost in the air. Winter is sending his minions ahead to warn of what is to come. It is our Thanksgiving here in Canada so we have a long weekend. My husband and I will be spending much of the weekend getting the outdoors prepared for the snow that... Sign in to see full entry.

Farewell

Good morning! I got a call last night from a very good friend of mine who moved away three years ago. I used to see her all the time and we were very close. We knew everything about each other's lives and were there for each other through more than one personal crisis. Now I see her a couple of... Sign in to see full entry.

My Life in Miniature

Good morning, I am late and must start my day. So it is a short one this morning. I have friends who say I can't do short (other than being vertically challenged). LOL But here we go only 12 lines.
