Premium Member a tempest for the almanac
The evening stars were gone, replaced by a spreading, ominous purple bruise of cloud. When the wind rose, in sudden violent crisscrossing gusts, everything went into motion. White cabanas shook, like staked swans flapping to fly, lavender bushes thrashed their thorny arms as if in panic, umbrella pines creaked and writhed like tethered balloons. Lightning lit the winding, stony stairs, like ornamental neon lights,...

Premium Member The Almanac and the Bible
The Almanac and the Bible By: Tom Wright 1/18/02 Upon a shelf, two books, of black and green, the almanac appeared most freshly laid. It's cover divulged the service it had seen, It's yellowish pages being dog eared and frayed. By the second book, my eye was quickly caught, being un-mistakenly, the pristine of the two.
