Good morning! A blast of fresh cold air with a hint of frost teased me when I let the dogs out first thing this morning. The sun is not up yet to warm the day so it feels like one of those days where it would feel cozy to sit in front of a warm fire with a good book and hot chocolate with... Sign in to see full entry.

Here I Am, Lord - a crisis of faith

Here I Am, Lord Here I am, Lord We haven’t spoken in a while Life has been hard I lost my smile I want to explain, Personally, What happened Between you and me I needed to see you Face to face So I stand here, alone, On this staircase I speak because I know That there are many more Who took the path...

A Conversation in a Grocery Line - Flash Fiction in Rhyme

A Conversation in a Grocery Line I was standing in line at the grocery store, Carefully checking my list again. Trying to save myself the discomfort Of having less money than groceries, when I heard someone speaking near the front of the line, A someone who was showing no class. I had seen those two...

Bubbles

Good morning! What a lovely crisp morning it is here! The sun will be up soon. We got back from our tournament fairly early yesterday (around 6:00). We had a great weekend but we were exhausted. The dogs after having slept all the way home (about an hour and a half) were ready to go again. Play,... Sign in to see full entry.

I would like to thank those of you who keep stopping by to read and especially those who are leaving messages. When I get back, I hope to catch up with everyone and return the...

Viva la difference!

Good morning, The sun isn't up yet, but when I let the dogs out I got a blast of crisp, cold air that smells like autumn. This is a poem I wrote many years ago, but it seems appropriate for a day like today. I liked the idea of putting the words into a shape. I wish I knew how to curve the lines so...

Beauty, Magic and Love

Good morning. A pensive moment caught in ink. Beauty Stillness in silence and sunlight Whispers... in whirls of water Misty colours of love, Melding together Tranquil, serene Moments of Magic Mirror Soft moonlight Silvered in dreams Deep scented midnights Memories floating, adrift Haunted by joyful...

It's 5:02 in the Morning

It is the anniversary of the death of the father of a very good friend of mine. I remember reading my e-mail and although I was expecting the news because he had been very ill, it was a shock to receive the e-mail that said "Dad died." Even when a death is expected the finality of it is not. This... Sign in to see full entry.

A Glass Half Full

Good morning! It is supposed to be raining right now but the sky is clear. We probably had frost last night. I'm afraid to look. LOL I always feel sad at the transition from our hectic, lazy, fun, busy, crazy summers to the fall. Although it is my favourite season because of its beauty, it is also...

The Watering Hole

Good morning! A crisp cool autumn morning brings a memory of a perfect moment, a vignette of peace. The Watering Hole On a lazy, hazy midsummer’s day, Dreaming gentle dreams, Amidst fragrant new mown hay; Only thoughts of happiness And feelings of peace and contentment Come my way. Floating,...
