joy posted a new Poem titled A LITTLE THINGS WALK 19 weeks ago
Whether we’re high up in the mountains, on a beach
headed into the woods, near a floating dock…
We love any opportunity we can…to take a ‘little things walk’.
That’s a walk we take…usually around two miles
Where we look for all... [read more] |

And you, Mrs. Richbitch marked a story of... [read more] |

I have an old friend named Pete
For breakfast each day, he'd eat
A bagel, if you please

Emotionally, he's a mess

Another one inspired by talking to some very angry people
And why do you stick your nose where it does not belong?

In adolescence, they persecuted suspected Homosexuals:
who were threats to the persecutors' sense of masculinity,
which shook them to the rotten cores of their shrivelled souls---

Beyond the quarrel of right and wrong there lies a plain, wide as the wilderness, waiting.
At the rising of the day a breath moves across the earth, whispering secrets to those who keep watch.
