Just wanted to let you know, I came by to read poems and instead clicked on your photo link and have spent the last 1/2 hour REALLY enjoying the photographs you have posted there.
I love the flowers but also everything else.  Miranda is a budding artist! Allison has a pretty smile! And the knot or braiding of Japanese orgin is fascinating. Your picture of Vancouver with the mountains white-capped at dusk is just fantastic. Loved my visit and I'll be back to read soon. Hannah has her spring concert tonight, she plays the flute.

'Tis now the very witching time of night,
When churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out
Contagion to this world.

OH. I visited your photos. Zara always tells me it is heavenly there on your coast. It sure looks it, course little girls help the scenery too.
Really like the archery display on your wall. Very sculptural!
Cool! Thanks for the link.

I almost choked at the clansman line until I realized what you were speaking of. That word has a much different meaning where I'm from.
Nice write.

We joined this site within 11 days of each other and instantly became friends. I just needed you to know that I keep you and your family close to my heart and in my prayers.

Thanks, the vacation was great. I managed some writing the first weekend but absolutely nothing after that. Too many days of rain and trying to keep a 3 year old busy in the cabin.
Also thanks for your wonderful comment on my poem. It really does help to have another juggle your words around to see a clearer path to the same goal.
I hope all is well with you.
John

I was reading some of the works by Emma Lazarus and found a poem that for some reason I thought you would enjoy.. Not sure if you know who she is... Her most notable work is on the Statue of Liberty.. Take care and Happy Easter  Catressa
The Taming of the Falcon By Emma Lazarus
The bird sits spelled upon the lithe brown wrist
Of yonder turbaned fowler, who had lamed
No feather limb, but the winged spirit tamed
With his compelling eye. He need not trust
The silken coil, not set the thick-limed snare;
He lures the wanderer with his steadfast gaze,
It shrinks, it quails, it trembles yet obeys.
And, lo! he has enslaved the thing of air.
The fixed, insistent human will is lord
Of all the earth;--but in the awful sky
Reigns absolute, unreached by deed or word
Above creation; through eternity,
Outshining the sun's shield, the lightening's sword,
The might of Allah's unaverted eye.
-
Just wanted to say Hi. Hope all is happy and well in your life.
Blessings and *stomps

I'm gonna have to disagree with that defination of poetry John
-
Thanks for that. I understand it better now. 
-
I like the addition to the top of your author page here. IT is not easy to define poetry I had an hour long discussion just last night on what lyrical poetry is.
-
keep writing your poems on
here i think they are cool to read
i am so impressed to review over your work .

I took my first (and likely my only) Medieval fencing lesson Wednesday. I learned the four guards and how to lunge. Looks good, but with an actual opponent I'd be dead in about 3 seconds.
I guess I'll just have to keep Simon at my side, should a swordsman decide to attack.
Hope all is well with you.

Happy Valentine's Day hon

Hi dear...yes, I have been idle. Too much stress. My son is in a bad part of Iraq and I am constantly worried about him. You'd think I could channel that stress into writing but stress tends to kill my muse. Oh well... I think you have been doing just fine with your writing...keep it up!!
-
Hi back. 
-
I want to see the kitty!!

How I love the Dune series!!!
