My eyes have done their share of dryin'
My mind's been preoccupied
My life's like a blackbird flyin' from a resting place on a wire
My ears sting deaf from deception
My hands shake cold from numb
My back breaks from old friends rejections
Where judgments and grudges are hung
But I'm not gonna hate
Even if I ache inside
I'm not gonna hurt someone
Even if I'm justified
I'm not gonna lie
Even if I've been deceived
An eye for an eye
Is not the life I choose to lead
I'm calling all lost souls and sinners
Adhere to the saints of men
Like Martin or Gandhi or Jesus
We should all learn to forgive
Has the cost of freedom been forgotten
Has the price of peace been banned
I believe love lives somewhere inside the brotherhood of man
But I'm not gonna hate
Even if I ache inside
I'm not gonna hurt someone
Even if I'm justified
I'm not gonna lie
Even if I've been deceived
An eye for an eye
Is not the life I choose to lead

Maya Angelou;
"The sun has come.
The mist has gone.
We see in the distance...
our long way home.
I was always yours to have.
You were always mine.
We have loved each other in and out of time.
When the first stone looked up at the blazing sun
and the first tree struggled up from the forest floor
I had always loved you more.
You freed your braids...
gave your hair to the breeze.
It hummed like a hive of honey bees.
I reached in the mass for the sweet honey comb there....
Mmmm...God how I love your hair.
You saw me bludgeoned by circumstance.
Lost, injured, hurt by chance.
I screamed to the heavens....loudly screamed....
Trying to change our nightmares to dreams...
The sun has come.
The mist has gone.
We see in the distance our long way home.
I was always yours to have.
You were always mine.
We have loved each other in and out
in and out
in and out
of time."
About me: "I give thanks for my many blessings. Just for today I will not anger. Just for today I will not worry. I will do my work honestly. I will be kind to people and every living thing." ~Reiki Intention
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into Hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen..
Well, let's see....I'm a Public Library Director, Writer and Paranormal Investigator. I'm the wife of one and mother of two; who have now grown up and left the nest. I have 2 novels published; ROSE'S KISS, and THE COMPASS ROSE, both historical fictions set in 14th century Europe. I have 4 poetry collections published to date; both in the U.S. and the U.K. I'm currently working on a novel based upon the lives of my great grandparents. There are other stories simmering on the back burner. I've also recently started studying Reiki in all my "spare time".
I live in the countryside of Indiana with my husband, in a charming, old farm house built around 1850, that we are constantly working on. We share the farm with 2 golden retrievers and an insanely old cat with one good eye, and 17 chickens.
