You know that feeling when something is so good that you just want to bottle it up and keep it or make it last forever. Well, I'm drawing a blank as to how to make that happen right now. At the heart of it, I know that I don't have the ability to do that, …

One Match Wonder
I have this thing about building a campfire. It began as a kid when I was old enough to start chopping wood and light it myself. Back in the day, lighters were a luxury whereas match boxes were a dime a dozen. The goal I learned was to light a fire with just one solitary …
Soaring Synergy
Up high like a bird, As free as I can be, Amongst the piney mountaintops, Is a peaceful serenity. A synergy of beings, Mother Nature and myself, A quiet understanding, Of us and nothing else. https://wordpresscom34070.wordpress.com/2020/07/07/daily-jibberjabber-word-prompts-july-8th-july-14th/

The Ocean’s Sweet Lullaby
