Looks like a super book, Dawn
Lazy Afternoon (Book) - 7/12/2009 4:15:57 PM
I had the good fortune to read this book and found the writing to be EXCELLENT. The was the authors twist and weaves each tale leaves the reader wondering right up to the end.
Often when I thought I had the direction figured out in which way the author was going, I found myself wrong. This is what makes this book so enjoyable is the strange and sometimes dark twist at the end.
I recomend this book to anyone who likes a mystery...***** STARS

Yours is beautiful.

Matters of the Heart (Short Story) - 10/21/2009 7:38:50 AM
THIS IS SO TRUE...WHEN ONE TRIES TO REPAIR A RELATIONSHIP AND FAILS...THE BEST 'NEXT' THING TO DO IS; STEP OUT OF THE WAY COMPLETELY AND LET GOD FIX IT...IF GOD DOESN'T DO IT, THEN IT WASN'T MEANT TO BE. GREAT WRITE, WHICH WAS SO ENJOYED. THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

THE ENCOUNTER SOUNDS...DREAMY. I'VE NEVER ACTUALLY BEEN TO ITALY BUT I CAN 'FEEL' AND 'SEE' PLACES I'VE NEVER BEEN THROUGH MUSIC AND STORIES. THANKS FOR REWARDING MY WAKING UP THIS MORNING AND...YOU WERE BORN IN CONNECTICUT AND ENDED UP TEACHING IN ITALY...DREAMS. THIS PRICELESS WORK IS SO...SATISFYING. GOD BLESS.

The Reason to Wake Up in the Morning (Short Story) - 10/6/2009 5:15:20 PM
Absolutely heartwarming, lovely story! I so thoroughly enjoyed this. I was just reading recently about life and how our culture has got this notion that once one hits mid-life, things ought to slow down and become somehow "less." However, the truth is that our unfolding finally brings us to the point where we can be at our "most" in mid-life - we have the deepest, richest and most textured part of ourselves to offer in the most profound and creative offerings.

Age is no barrier to romance and friendship Dawn
It is the beauty within that sparkles like a diamond
And age is no barrier to our dreams either.
We should mature with age and wisdom and have the wherewithal and drive to realize all our dreams and aspirations
Dream on

A great twist at the end of this one. Well done!

This is so touching, Dawn. I love stories about goals and dreams, maybe because I have so many unrealized at the moment. This inspires me to keep going. Love and Hugs,
Sheila
The Reason to Wake Up in the Morning (Short Story) - 8/11/2009 7:41:22 PM
I loved it! It is so true about dreams. We all have to hold on to our dreams and keep dreaming bigger sized dreams. Nothing is impossible when you believe in your dreams.
The Reason to Wake Up in the Morning (Short Story) - 8/11/2009 4:18:41 PM
I love this real life drama story that makes us all pause to think and see that age can be truly immaterial when it comes to being and doing what we need to do to be happy.

Never think you're too old for dreams. Reno sounds like you met an 'angel in disguise.' Regular people are often used in this manner. Well done, Dawn!
The Reason to Wake Up in the Morning (Short Story) - 8/11/2009 7:30:07 AM
Digressing...the reason I rise up every morning is: if I stay longer and quiet in bed I am afraid they will bury me without asking first! LOL
But then I am older than dirt!

Marvelous story Dawn. I am blessed by it and pray that when you are 75 you'll be riding your bike and you'll have lots of fulfilled dreams to tell those who follow behind you. Bless you muchly, J'nia

What a beautiful story. What you gleaned from that experience will live with you forever. I know I feel blessed for having met you and when I think of you and your Mom, I smile a little.

Damn! I'm jealous! Of course I am not seventy-five-years-old, I'm shy of that by five years. I sincerely hope that what you have left to hope for comes to fruition and your life, the rest of it, will be wonderful.
The Reason to Wake Up in the Morning (Short Story) - 8/11/2009 5:48:55 AM
A lovely and friendly story. Those old timers have a lot of grit,k stamina and wisdom. When I was a child I loved old people because they were friendly and could tell wonderful stories. (Just imagine all the wonderful stories that never got written.)

Well, I won't be offering you any of my "Dirty Little Ronnie's Nearly World Famous Poached Salmon" any time soon. How do you feel about Bananas Foster?
Great job...as usual!

Submersion (Short Story) - 6/26/2009 9:24:23 AM
This is an awesome short story.
The delima to find a way out..but surely this was not she had in mind.
Strange are the ways to get out of someones life.
Liked it a lot...
The Greatest Distance (Short Story) - 6/25/2009 4:34:52 PM
Your words ring true for those who love someone, but along the way one is no longer loved by the other. Perhaps it is today's obsession with self. I am beginning to believe that it is a growing curse and evolving as a wider effect on those who want to love. This is extremely well written. - Chins Up! - Bill
The Greatest Distance (Short Story) - 6/24/2009 12:27:31 PM
Hey, that's really cool Dawn. Thanks, hugs, J'nia

Use them as compost, and plant new dreams. Nicely done, Dawn.
A Soul's Perspective (Poetry) - 11/13/2009 8:34:14 PM
Right on! Life is in the travel, not the destination.
The Power That Is (Poetry) - 11/13/2009 8:33:09 PM
Amen! Well said, Dawn.
A Soul's Perspective (Poetry) - 11/13/2009 12:21:44 AM
A very thoughtful write, Dawn. It seems to demonstrate an inner strength. It's that place we draw from when we need to get through something or we need change. Hugs,
Sheila
The Gathering (Poetry) - 11/13/2009 12:18:12 AM
This makes me think of a marriage gone wrong. You develop the emotions so quickly in this write. Nicely done, Dawn.

The Road to There (Poetry) - 11/12/2009 4:09:19 PM
Understanding the bridge into the future let alone successfully finding it. Your poem illustrates a quiet contemplation that usually is the bridge to fulfilled life........Jerry
Progression (Poetry) - 11/12/2009 4:07:06 PM
I loved the growth in this poem from the opening thoughts clean andsoft to final beauty of life's contradictions. You painted an interesting progression in thought and awareness beginning with the great opening stanza.............Jerry
Season of Grace (Poetry) - 11/12/2009 4:03:39 PM
A great metaphor to portray the beauty of human aging with grace to the color and stateliness of the oak, Dawn. Well done with life and color--I only have to look at the lines in my own face to see again the weathering of each season..........Jerry
The Power That Is (Poetry) - 11/12/2009 3:59:50 PM
What a vivid description of the state of soul, Dawn. Very profound in its waiting for fulfillment. That last last stanza is a quote that ought to go on every 2010 calendar..........Jerry
A Soul's Perspective (Poetry) - 11/12/2009 3:56:46 PM
You have experienced a beautiful serenity in self-awareness, and communicate it wonderfully, a depth of inward realization. I especially like the perception of the last line,"place in time, continuing to travel on the road to there.".........Jerry
The Gathering (Poetry) - 11/12/2009 3:54:04 PM
Interesting how a lack of truth, not just outright lies, can go so far to destroy human relationship. Your writing not only is well-done--it shows a building toward mental and spiritual health..........Jerry
The Gathering (Poetry) - 11/10/2009 9:37:22 PM
Dawn,
Very touching,on many levels.I thank you for sharing it.
To your continued success/

OH, DAWN...THOUCHING THE THOUGHTS THAT EVERY ONE OF US HAVE FELT... WHEN AT A VERY SPECIAL MOMENT WE REACH BACK AND CATCH A GLIMPSE OF ... PAST TRUE LOVE. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS LOVELY POETICAL TOKEN. BLESSINGS. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
A Soul's Perspective (Poetry) - 11/9/2009 6:31:26 AM
YES...IT IS ONLY WHEN WE 'CLOSE' OUR EYES THAT WE CAN 'SEE' CLEARLY...THEN WE CAN BASK IN THE WONDERFUL PEACE OF 'HIS' PRESENCE...AS WE PRESS ON. A MOST ENCHANTING WORK THAT 'FEEDS' THE SPIRIT AND MIND. DONE WELL, DAWN, AND THANKS FOR SHARING. GOD BLESS.

A Soul's Perspective (Poetry) - 11/8/2009 6:10:20 AM
Nice thoughts Dawn...sometimes we just have to stop and truly grasp the breath to realize who we are and where we are going...and even so,
the heart of the Soul has it's own mind and will lead us...
nice...
Art Sun...
The Gathering (Poetry) - 11/8/2009 6:07:46 AM
Sometimes the truth flows along that journey we wish for, it is when we come face to face with the half truth that we realize it was only
...a promise waiting to be broken
nice work Dawn...
Art Sun...
The Gathering (Poetry) - 11/7/2009 4:58:12 AM
Promises. They run through our veins - often the lifeblood of hope and dreams. Strength comes through sustaining and, perhaps, redirecting the hope and dreams even after the promises have dissolved. When the seratonin subsides, truth rises up.
A Soul's Perspective (Poetry) - 11/7/2009 4:54:54 AM
These mystical stirrings reflect Source and so well demonstrate that you have lifted whatever lids of suppression may have once obscured that part of Source/God/All-That-Is that resides within each of us, in our every cell. You are a Light Shining.
The Power That Is (Poetry) - 11/7/2009 4:51:50 AM
You've been busy while I've been "away"! This is perhaps one of your all-time best in every sense. Indeed, I will be adding this to my library. The writing, style, message are absolutely wonderful. The last stanza, in particular, is brilliant.
Season of Grace (Poetry) - 11/7/2009 4:48:58 AM
The photo reminds me of the one I took/used for my article Thoughts on Home; I love it. Your softness and approachability and willingness to mentor/teach gleam through your words just as the sun backlights the leaves in your beautiful photograph. You are reflective and 'honoring' and aware.
Progression (Poetry) - 11/7/2009 4:45:26 AM
That opening stanza is pure and wonderful! The entire piece is calming and "open" and oh-so-relatable.
The Road to There (Poetry) - 11/7/2009 4:43:55 AM
The photograph is lovely and beautifully compliments your contemplation. You are an astute and ever-wise student of Life.
The Gathering (Poetry) - 11/6/2009 7:36:11 PM
DONE WELL...A LOOK AT ONE LANGUISHING OVER A LOST LOVE BUT GATHERS UP THE BROKEN PIECES...IN PREPARATION TO PRESS ON...? THANK YOU DAWN FOR ANOTHER TOUCHING WORK. BLESSINGS. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
