Today is officially going to be “My Day”. I decided it was time to make a day like this on my calendar. Hallmark will be caught my surprise and won’t have time to stock cards and silly gifts. I do not expect flowers or $99 jewelry specials. I don’t want a dinner with a house […]

I paced alone on the road across the field while the sunset was hiding its last gold like a miser. The daylight sank deeper and deeper into the darkness, and the widowed land, whose harvest had been reaped, lay silent. Suddenly a boy’s shrill voice rose into the sky. He traversed the dark unseen, leaving […]
“How beautiful they are, the lordly ones Who dwell in the hills In the hollow hills. They have faces like flowers And their breath is wind that stirs amid the grasses Filled with white clover.
