 | A PROMISE | flowing pencil | Poetry | Poetry | 9 | 0.13 | Feb 1, 2012 |
Summary:Stretching a bit so let me know feelings etc. I tend not to so am a bit guarded but this is what one must do in order to grow or produced the same old thing over and over..
This past twelve months have been full of loss for so many..
I was reminded of that and remember an early morning a couple of days ago that I found very healing for me. I hope this is in a way a healing type of poem.Chapters: |

 | THINKING OF MONET | flowing pencil | Poetry | Poetry | 9 | 0.08 | Nov 3, 2011 |
Summary:Trying to capture a sight during a drive October 30th... It was really magic as Autumn hued leaves were being stripping from the maples trees and swirling around us like huge colorful snowflakes. Monet's Haystacks came to mind. I tried to capture it. I hope I did it justice. Started in older English but ran it by Jlb and he suggested I go with my other version of modern language.
Thanks Jim..

Summary:This is just a piece for all who have moments of separation from hope.
If you have read and reviewed this.. I just want to know if format better. comment in forum ... The format was not like my own work so I finally went back and reformatted in to verses and changed a few simple words. I tried to single space it but it still appears double? Does the double spacing hurt it? Again ... if you have reviewed this before. Just leave comment in forum.
We have so many new members that I would love to have feedback from some of them.
This most likely will be the first piece I 'send out' haaaaaa... I know! I am such a wimp! I don't even care if I get rejected so why the fear? Just me!

I write a lot about trees. I identify so much of my life with trees and memories. They were my haven and still are.They are magic ... They have been honored and they have been defiled

 | Death in the Forest | pannastra | Short Story | Flash Fiction | 7 | 0.31 | May 17, 2010 |
Summary:My writing penchant is humour, so this one is unusual for me, but had to be written. Whether I should have posted it on tNBW is another matter.
I find the saturation promotional advertising of up-coming tv programs to be extremely irritating. One in particular that was doing the rounds really p'd me off. As I lay in bed one night trying to sleep I got quite incensed. I could not sleep until I had grabbed my laptop computer and wrote down what was bounding around inside my skull.
This is the result.Chapters: |
 | Action and Reaction | jpb2ndchance | Poetry | Poetry | 7 | 0.61 | May 14, 2010 |
Summary:Forgetting that humans have a place in the Natural World can be dangerous. Biblical cautions about stewardship may be more than out of date platitudes. But civility and harmony need to also be part of the balance that humans bring to that order. Those that would profit from nature must also be the strongest proponents of wise stewardship. Political posturing and unfounded shouting to secure long careers in powerful places is as dangerous as any disaster, natural or manmade.Chapters: |
