"Those Summer Days"
I ran out the door so fast I barely heard my mom tell me to be home for supper. “I will,” I called back as I slammed out the front door. My friends...

Posted on Fri, 04 Oct 2019
Life and all of its misery, responsibilities, angst and anger fill your intelligent musings candidly and I can commiserate with your need for a writer’s outlet to release all these feelings tumbling over each other and needing to get out.

I love a rainy day when all
Posted on Sun, 22 Sep 2019
I love a rainy day when all things are renewed with the drenching. Your poetic descriptions accurately painted a grey, yet still colorful, walk in the rain and I enjoyed walking it with you. I felt the sadness in your words at the memory of lost...

Posted on Tue, 03 Sep 2019
Away from city lights, on a dark night, gazing up at the velvet, endless sky, it gives a new persepctive. We are so small, so inconsequential in the scheme of this expansive universe. It humbles and makes me aware of the fragile workings of our...

Beautifully written, perfect descriptions of a rainy day, wind blowing and rain pouring down while you view it cozily from inside and playing a game of scrabble. ( I love scrabble) . It all sounds so inviting... and as you'd wished...I hope the...

Your descriptions made me
Posted on Wed, 14 Aug 2019

Your story and words felt so
Posted on Mon, 12 Aug 2019

I could not stop reading, each morsel of this story was more tender than the last. The way you wrote of the beauty of her poetry conjured images both amazing and provoking, winter can be warmly cold and artistically beautiful. This was a great...

Posted on Fri, 03 May 2019
Thank you airyfairy, it has always stayed with me even though I'd never meet this relative, the ending of his life seemed so harsh for one so young (he'd turned 29 the September before that Christmas Eve) and the year 1944 just evoked so many...
