Smoky Mountain Series Continues

Just a little update to say Book # 6 of the Smoky Mountain Novel Series will be out around the first of May. GRACE FOR ATTICUS has been one of my most challenging books in a long time, but I’ve been in love with it from the first paragraph. I thought I’d give you aContinue reading “Smoky Mountain Series Continues”

Come Spring

Come, Spring; Come, gentle Spring, And beckon us to life again. We’ve wallowed long in dark and death, Despairing of a better day. But once again, with breath awash with sunlight, You’ve pressed your gentle way into the cold and gloom And bid us rise to meet you with a smile.

Rivers, Lakes, and Ponds by Visions Seen Photography

My great friend, Terry Valley, who is a professional photographer in Wisconsin, grants me permission to use his photos for any and every reason. I love his work, and I love sharing it, so today I thought I’d post a collection of his ‘bodies of water’ photos for you to enjoy.

Soul Art Cinquain

Sometimes It is enough To take up brush and pen And lay down shapes and colors soft — Soul art.

Counting The Cost

I’ve found that although at the start, I chafed and whined, Now, after many months, I’ve become self-inclined. Where I was once outgoing and with people pleased, I now am focused on myself, and I’ve perceivedContinue reading “Counting The Cost”

The Secret of the Ribbon Tree

I wrote this poem several years ago, but got to thinking about it this week — probably because we are coming up on Valentine’s Day. So I decided to give it some time online again. THE SECRET OF THE RIBBON TREE I’ve wondered round this earth for years, And known my share of joys andContinue reading “The Secret of the Ribbon Tree”
