Planting
A friend said a little mulch and planting is what it takes to transform a yard. She bought flowers in spring as a gift to herself. She laid the mulch and planted the flowers around a tree. She cried out for last night’s storm and all life a touch of rain could bring. She said after her divorce every transgression could be forgiven with a little sun. After moving back to her hometown it was time...

Hometown
Hometown, a place we’re addicted to, A place we call our own. Yet, sometimes we’re compelled to, Sometimes, forced to roam. Hometown, a place we’re led to, lay our roots so deep. Yet, sometimes we’re forced to, Sometimes, forcing us to take a leap. Hometown, a place where love grows, Guides us as we learn and thrive. Yet, sometimes they force us, Forcing us...

No way do we want my adopted hometown, Everett Washington, to become another sanctuary city
Seattle Washington of King County is where I was born in early October of 1954. And it already has become another sanctuary city. What is a sanctuary city? In the case of the USA and Washington DC--'it is nothing more than a sanctuary for dangerous criminals and terrorists,' who are illegal aliens flooding our northern boarders'. Washington State...

That Big Tree From Our Hometown That I Visit Sometimes
Don’t mind me I’m just laying on my bed plotting ways to save the world I saw my lucky stars wrapped around Jupiter It hurts to know that what I needed most couldn’t provide in that moment Will someone please touch my heart?

I wish to view an Oct sunrise in my hometown. Riding a train to class and eating bread brown. I miss wearing boots in my charming homeland. Jackets and hats close to the September end. Home ought to be recalled with love and pride. Akin street tag and rendezvous by the creekside. My hometown has bleak fame for being notorious. Despite adversity,...

Small, cut in half by Route Sixty-Six, with farms and ranches scattered around. Theaters, cafes, motels, your picks Saturdays, everyone came to town. What fun walking down crowded Main Street. giving a farm boy a furtive glance. Then movies, popcorn, something sweet to watch Fred and Ginger glide and dance. The tranquil aura of peacefulness, of hometown, friends, and a picture show. We didn't think...

Premium Member That Small Town Christmas Spirit
That small town Christmas spirit... It grew a little brighter just after Thanksgiving. Garlands were wrapped around every light pole lining the main street. Multi-colored light strings outlined every window. The drug store, the library. Even the corner bar across from the church had a little Christmas spirit and cheer. And, the post office, busy with workers answering kids' letters to Santa... Young voices rose from the school gymnasium, where...
