Premium Member Big Sandy: Recollection in the Free State
The hollow remains unphotographed. Memory, not landscape, frames it— a road cleaving winter in two, children laughing while gravity negotiated its own terms. Neighbors spoke without flourish. Their kindness was practical, never advertised, always assumed. You could leave your grief on the porch overnight; someone would tuck it in and leave bread beside it by morning. Coal knew every surname but never asked for praise. It shaped the valley, not into...

A Version of Me
There is no strength in fear and flame, naught but the bitterness of blame, which leads us all to guilt and shame, finger pointing and naming names. Better still our hearts to open, forgive and live with hope and honest emotion, a chain of grace unbroken, positive words to be spoken, and put our heart into motion. Easier though to give anger it’s head, to wish...

A Call
Attending school was never an option when the empty drum echoes the song of yearning grains, trekking the lanes with bathroom slippers that awaits a welcoming party in the municipal waste truck while idanuwa na zubar da kwalla. Bafflement grips me when some sit in their Sunday best with glossy heels kicking a storm for not...

When the warm nutmeg spirit of generosity moves you year round, a Mrs. Claus heart fills your smile. It's a Christmas kind of love on any given day, it has you singing, "Joy to the World," with your Yuletide soul soaring pool side in the middle of July.

Premium Member Dayshine - 2020
Light switched on our world bringing both energy and vision, igniting rich colors with great variation. It flowed from the sun, that star that rose each day to give with ever onward generosity. I loved the dayshine. I loved the brightness and the warmth in the long summer days. I loved the way it made the world shine so freshly in the snow-bequeathed days...

Premium Member Resilient Generosity
Gratitude for grace already received is a robust measure of generosity. Compassion scans for generosity's fullness felt within as incarnated without As dispassion predicts greed's anxious emptiness. Giving is physical and/or verbal while generosity is mental and nonverbal. Giving, like loving, hoping for a return of grace within your lifetime's future, does not share or stretch your gift of generosity. Giving, hoping to receive in equal measure, plus interest, plus loyalty, plus admiration for...
