A trip to the Rez~Inspired from a comment by Ash~

Everyone who visits.. Sees a grand culture.. But... Behind the curtians of that very culture.. Is poverty that is almost third world.. Wood stoves are a luxury to some.. Going to school is one too.. Getting government help is an essential of life too.. Yet, among the years I spent within this place.... Sign in to see full entry.

Lost Island

Have any of you heard of the city of Atlantis? Ancient travelers have... Herodotus.. Plato.. and a little known man called Proclus.. They described the beautiful layout of the city.. Their knowledge of technology.. How their ancient thoughts helped produce a democratic empire. I have read lots..... Sign in to see full entry.

Drifting Grey

The fog parts as the sail boat slides along the still grey waters.. The ocean is a second home for me.. She can be rough... She can be sweet.. But.. Always she welcomes.. A home away from home. Her foggy blanket and all... Copyright(c)2008 Marion Merrill. All rights reserved. Sign in to see full entry.

Faire Day

At the Renaissance Faire.. Colours swirl.. People smile... The aroma of food only found at faire. Glancing down the path full of people.. I found a most interesting thing.. Horses and men who use them.. Knights... Modern day warriors. Not so long ago.. One caught my eye.. A man dressed in golden... Sign in to see full entry.

Morning Welcome

Drops of morning sunlight dance through the trees.. A gentle wind pushing the silent air.. This morning is meant to be a special day.. The aromatic tingle that touches your nose. Which only coffee can make.. A hushed giggle. The rustle of fabric.. The screen door squeaks.. It's opening phrase. One... Sign in to see full entry.

Selkie Dream

Standing on.. Cliffs the ocean has made.. I gaze at the big blue. Seven years ago.. When I was still new. I saw something... A seal in the shape of a man.. My head and my heart both agree.. It was a man I seen.. These very cliffs that hold me now. Held me then.. On the rocks below I found a man... Sign in to see full entry.

My Prayer~~For my mother.

Looking to the sky I see.. Clouds slide on by. Birds gliding on Gods' winds.. Looking to the Earth I see.. Trees and flowers: the bounty of God's grace. Looking at me I see.. God's will looking to fill my soul with God's light. Looking in my heart I see.. The heart of love wishing for everything... Sign in to see full entry.
