Such warmth I feel in comforts hold when cloaked beneath the candles glow from this tranquil nook my heart doth go where artists play and dreams unfold. With words I am carried off in time to distances unknown before for love from fantasies in rhyme or mysteries lived on moonlit shores. I flee into such make believe and rise in peace to love again to put at rest my cause to grieve forgetting all torment and pain. In this world my thoughts run free to bring me pause for where and why with candle light to truly see enabled passions mortal cry What I Would Do For A Nook And A Storybook Contest Sponsored By Eve Roper 04/25/2016

That's a great place to dive our heads in, when we are in search of the perfect read. Charlie, sometimes I like to bury myself with mystery and travel with nature. You have a great poem. The best of luck. Linda

It's sometimes offers us a chance to escape and be somewhere or someone we would rather be at that moment. A safe haven to drift into new experiences we might never encounter, given our own circumstance. Thank you Linda for such great encouragement, Charlie

Thank you Brian, other than that I don't know what to say. Rockwell happens to be one of my favorites. That's about as nice a note as I've received. You are too kind...
