Bring back the singing and the scent of meadowlands at dewy prime.

Lovely Poems Quotes and Inspiration.

Quiet friend who has come so far,
Feel how your breathing makes more space around you.
Let this darkness be a bell tower and you the bell. As you ring, what batters you becomes your strength.
Move back and forth into the change.
What is it like, such intensity of pain?
If the drink is bitter, turn yourself into wine.
In this uncontainable night be the mystery at the crossroads of your senses, the meaning discovered there.
And if the world cease to hear you.
Say to the silent Earth; I flow.
To the rushing water, speak; I am.
More things for reflection in our quiet moments when we dream by a stream, brook, or the vast ocean.
Be quite in gentle awareness.
Always safe on the shore.
Loving you, a feeling I will never outgrow.
I'll run to meet you, barefoot, barely breathing.
Close your eyes and leap
Leap and a net will always catch you.

THE DAILY JOURNAL OF AN EMERGING WRITER.November 29th.
Monday.
Has now turned in to a MAD MONDAY. I am still trying to navigate this blog site. Whew. Time for bed.
Sunday at least was a very successful family get together. My Sweet and Sour Ribs were a massive hit.
Tomorrow we have early visitors in the morning and, an afternoon visitor as well. It looks as if it will be another busy day.
Pip and Alexandra are tired of running around in my head, and want to come out to play. Pip to show Alexandra the sites of London, and Alexandra wants to finish the story of how she found Hearts-Ease, and to take Pip to the valley where the unicorn lay injured.
Friday. 10th December.
A long time no post.
Since last posting what have I been doing to move forward or backward to my writing? I finally finished WRITING all the Christmas cards, and to the special people among my family and friends one always has to WRITE the expected Christmas letter.
I signed up for two WRITING Workshops starting in the New Year. WRITING FOR YOUNG ADULTS. and ESSAY WRITING, starting in January and February. I am all booked to go to New York City in March. I will take my WRITING materials with me as I intend to add to my notes for another book I am WRITING. A Winter Diva. In September I will be attending another WRITING CONFERENCE.The Round Robin WRITERS CONFERENCE,for Young Adult WRITERS.
This week I added a new friend to my Facebook page. His Name is RICARDO PINTO. He has WRITTEN a Trilogy of Fantasy Fiction. THE STONE DANCE OF THE CHAMELEON. He welcomes comments and questions on his blog. I found him through the Search Engines.I am proud to be on his list.
For the first time I have posted part of my 2nd draft on the WORTHY OF PUBLISHING site. Thank you Sara D. for sending me that link sometime ago. The same posting is WRITTEN on my Blog too
Now I can get back to joining in with Alexandra and Pip's eventful New Year in their world. It doesn't end their year very happily. But one must always WRITE a cliffhanger or two.

THE DAILY JOURNAL OF AN EMERGING WRITER.
SATURDAY.
November 27th. 2010.
The apartment is filled with the aroma of Sweet and Sour ribs simmering away nicely for my family supper tomorrow. I may have to make extra sauce for the large crock-pot,it seems to be absorbing a bit too much. The 3quart crock pot is doing very nicely.
The Christmas outdoor lights are laid out on the living-room floor ready to be hung. Oh yes, and today I started Christmas Shopping.
Did I write? Not today.

CIRCLE OF TWO . A UNICORN'S CHRONICLE BOOK 2. Chapter 1 (cont)
Alex was never unnoticed. As she wended her way amongst the teeming Londoners today, heads turned as this petite girl with the narrow hips and broad shoulders who walked with an assertive, and long stride in spite of her diminutive size, swung by.
The business women in their tailored black and gray for the office noticed well enough, and gave way to fleeting thoughts resolving to, 'Live life in bolder colors'
She rarely dressed that way. Today she was in practical blue jeans and matching jacket.But still it was the impression of brightness and a gentle energy that moved with her, surrounded her. It showed in her green eyes as well, a dreaminess, a softness, that lingered there. No ... Alex was never invisible
