Victoria over at http://liv2write2day.wordpress.com/ is encouraging us to write endings that want the reader to read on. Below is a section of chapter three of my book Jemi’s Noble Quest. It’s written for a younger audience and is in its 5th rewrite. Hey, maybe a Nook possibility. What do you think Krystal? Jemi’s guess was [...]

Bird Food
Where do the birds find food when earth is frozen deep; like marble deeply dense. Where does a soul find rest when life is frozen deep; solid stone walls hiding life. Where do the birds find fare when blustery winds blow; as raging torrents of sea. Where does a soul find peace when sorrowful winds [...]

Mighty Pine
I walked through wood kettled deep and wide; harden earth under foot sprinkled with a dusting of snow, like powder sugar atop a sweet. My eyes fluttered from tree to tree, as butterflies to nectar treat; resting on a mighty pine… stretched toward the open sky. Towering high, no need to repeat, lush green needled [...]

Forest Floor
What lies on forest floor; when winter’s coat ignores whiteness of the snow. What’s tucked deep in earth; where critter snoozes so sound, while sun seeps in solid dirt. What’s buried beneath nature; why do we hide ourselves worlds to be uncovered. What draws us to retreat; when winter’s in our hearts whiteness washed away. [...]

The Grands
In the stillness… of Christ’s birth wee ones wonder what’s all the fuss we grown-ups display. In the wonder… of the guy in the red suit who knows if you’re naughty or nice and if you’re sleeping. In the curiosity… of a living tree indoors decked with pretties no one can touch, as lights blink [...]

Herod
Bright was the light… like a thousand lamp-lights illuminating the night sky reaching heavenward. Dark was the castle… it had settled in his heart; cold, cruel, crippling darkness inward. The light a sign of hope for eternity; while darkness slaughter a multitude of infants one bitter night. His shameful sword struck deep. “Rachel weeping for [...]

The Long Journey
Arid breezes brushed her simple veil; cloth to pass away the sands of time. There were days they both wavered, as crowds pressed in their private space. Recently wed, but not having given of herself; first fruits of her womb were generously given to her King. God had chosen her alone; she had no idea [...]

Holiday Shopping
Strolling down the store isles, Goldie Grand and I see the colored lights glowing in the center of the store. Shopping done I ask here if she’d like to see the Christmas decorations. An agreeing smile from her and our cart turns a new direction. I glance past boughs, wreaths, and ornaments, while Goldie Grand [...]

Day’s Light
Fog so dense my world enveloped in a mass of cloud; fraught for first breath greedily gasping, gulping then fervently wheezing. Daily struggle to see, to grasp life’s purpose here on this cloud covered land mass; where chaos, confusion, and commotion steals day after day… time Morning light pierces haze Defused it brings a calming [...]
