The Promise
As we bring in this New Year of 2024, I want to share with you this poem I wrote on January 1st 2017. “The Promise”
Why are Hawks and Hummingbirds best friends?
While working on the first Hawk and the Hummingbird book, I learned about the real relationship between the large hawk and its tiny friend, the hummingbird.
Across the Sea
Across the Sea
The midday sun warms my soul
A gentle breeze stirs tendrils of salt air
Minnows gingerly nip at my toes
High above the lone gull cries
You laughing at me again, silly bird?
Pay no never mind, nothing can dampen this spirit….
Thank you, Veterans
For all of those men and women and their families that have served, Thank you and may God bless you.
Five word poem challenge
Friday 5 challenge. A challenge to write a poem out of the 5 random words.
Just a little tidbit…
When I first decided to try my hand at writing a novel, I originally decided on just a sci-fi novel. But something happens when you start writing, your characters seem to become more real, more flesh and bone. You start to feel like you know each of them intimately and so this realization sort of changed my direction for the book.
If this old barn could speak…
Just imagine if this old barn could speak. It could tell us all it knows.
Future Story Ideas
As a writer, it is good to keep a log or a small book that you can write future story ideas in. Something that you can keep handy when you need to start a new book.
Your Love Surrounds Me
Soft as the wind blows
Soft as the wind blows
Stay close to me heart of love
Stay close to me heart of love
Wind of love blows close to me
Stay soft as the heart…..
Writing Prompts
Writing prompts are great. I particularly like the ones that give you three or so words and you must write a short story or vignette with them.
A Tribute to the Clippers
Fleeting Moments
As the morning rises on the harbor, a lone ship can be seen rocking gently to the lullaby of the passive ocean roll. So tranquil is the scene that the only movement that can be noticed is the slow and subtle rising of the mist that surrounds her.
My Favorite Season
Fall is my favorite season. Each season brings something that I like though.
