This sounds like a place I would love to visit. I love nature especially on a blustery day; it does make you feel alive, the winds, warm or chilled, have a way of stirring the soul. I loved this poem and the place it took me to. Thank you for...

I hear the love for the animals throughout your story and I have to say, didn’t see the ending coming that you’d find your best friend. I love dogs, well truth is, I love all animals, but dogs have been the major best friends in my life. I lost...

Enjoyed this slice of life story; It could have been a sweet, 'other time tale,' only for the fact it is threaded with current day issues and modern day humor, sooo much humor, I smiled throughout my reading it. You have kept this humor even ...
