I marvel at the hammerhead, The tiger shark in graceful sweep, The gentle giant’s silent thread— In every...

Premium Member Ocean's Embrace, A Warrior's Heart
Ocean's Embrace, A Warrior's Heart Shattered news, a whispered word, "Cancer," they said, my world was blurred. A mammogram's shadow, stark and deep, A secret held I couldn't keep.

The gentle waves lapping gave me nothing to fear....

Premium Member The Pool Shark
The Pool Shark Double or nothing I go for the gold. I meet with the devil and sell him my soul. Content with the knowledge I will win it all. I let him guide me to the pool hall table. Dressed in my white suit with Panama hat. I stand with my cue and watch my sucker rack. As I line up my shot I hear bets exchanged. Their values...
