*One More Time* The hill of my heart weathering and renewing, The lichen ligated to it ousting and emerging!  Windswept crevices eroded by water, Fervid for change  and a deep desire! An ephemeral rock breathing on fire, Ready to revive the hidden sapphire! This time you visit  th  Read More...

  The boat ride back from the island seemed swift. I jumped out on to the wharf that was feet and a half above the deck and unknowingly and perhaps appearing to ignore the rest of the women folk extended my hand to her to hold and hoist up on to the wharf. That chivalry apparently did not go u  Read More...
