You left me behind
But I still feel you out there.
I really miss you.

When Did I Become Such A Prude?

For those of you who aren't aware, I am a romance novelist. A novel concept considering I've been out of the romance/relationship and particularly dating arena for quite a few years. My last first date was actually in 1992. So, after reviewing my first (yet to be published) novel I questioned its authenticity or realistic value. I sat my 25 year old daughter down for a few questions.

"Okay," I queried. "What's the rule for a call back after the…

Starting School



'Starting School'



When I began the first grade mom would take me to Brooks Clothiers downtown to buy my t-shirts, underwear and my red label Farrah 'husky' jeans. Then off

to TG and Y next door to get pencils, my Big Chief tablet, and

crayolas. Oh and then around the corner…

Where is my baby?
Here just a moment ago,
Teenage boy swapped him!

God

Is God a living part of you,

Or are you a part of him?

Is he woven through creation,

Or on creation's rim?

Do you find God on Sunday,

Or the middle of the week?

Is the hand of God for strength,

Or only for the meek?

Do you hear God in written words,

Or in the bird's sweet song?

Do you feel his presence,

When choosing right from wrong?

Who Am I?

Creative writing challenge #3 ~~
WHO AM I?
My music career began when I was 14 years old as a starlighter.
Man, I love a good Shindig!
Phil Spector was once my employer.
I attended Church often.
I love you in a place where there's no space or time.
I married a member of Sly & The Family Stone.

Squirrel runs and hides.
Two hawks patrol overhead.
Cat sits patiently.

Did I tell you I have OCD? :-) This one is a little harder.

The garage band drum pumps out a simplistic beat. The voice has remnants of bands past. What's old is new again. High pitched and freeing it will captivate you.Two tiny figures makes all that rockin' noise? When it's over you will yell for more.

I like this one. I think I'll do it again.

Smooth sultry words spill from those lips. So tantalizing is the mixture of such melodious sounds coming from an awkward cowboy. Those slim beautiful fingers strum the guitar like it's home. . Sweet sounds of gospel are always close at hand. Daydreams wisp by of ponies and penguins. Makes you wish for one brief moment that you were from Texas.

Wiffledust Creative Writing Challenge: Here's lookin' at you

He held her hand as hard as he could, knowing that all his strength now was but a feeble echo of what it used to be. He realized that his grip was not to keep himself here but to keep her from going, to make her stay and listen.



"Promise me," he whispered. "Promise me that you won't stop them from taking this shell." He stopped speaking to try to pull enough air into his weakened lungs to finish. "This shell I'm in now," he continued. "Fucked over by that damned disease and then by the… Continue

Long black hair. Motown, Carole King influence. Peter Paul and Mary had three dogs one night. One sweaty Christmas in the Fifth dimension. God I miss her.

Is your ego bruised?
Or do you just see it now
Through a purple lens?

The beauty of his voice is that it is not pitch perfect. What clever entertaining ditties he creates. He sings of woman , life, cars, and guitars. He may even throw in a Tiki Bar.You hear his words come out of some of the worlds greats. They wish they had his mad writing skills.

My Favorite

He is every man's man. A story teller who crys out from the heart. He croons what resides in the hearts of many. Comforting sometimes and sometimes distressing. Wake up, America! Look around and take care of one another.

Guess Who . . .

He sings of the prairie, the south and the past.

Like a stringed instrument, his voice quivers and cries out in pain.…
