This Dereliction

From pianoforte to pianoforte, saloon to saloon, town to town I roam.

far and...

Making cotton baskets ‘neath a white oak tree.

There is no denying the power of love.
It is a splendid teacher
Quite adept at instructing us

Or never even imagined we...

Enough Already
Enough Already!
You’re dawn’s ghost of a chance each new day can find meaning,
dusk’s thanks to creation, for gifts we’ve received.

Golden Quill Quest

Extra effort helps climb...
