Mostly fiction mixed with a little poetry and a smidgen of real life drama
A loving place where I did once dwell
But will never be allowed to return
You are the spring that feeds the stories I tell
The keeper of the things that I have learned
Each step I take is filled with memories
From a life that I once knew
Every smell from flower and tree
Pulls my thoughts back to you
There in those backyards of my memories
I recall my pledge from so long ago
That I will remain open and free
And cling to youth and never let go
A snap of our life in the slow lane....
walk into my mind

My journey through the depths of hitting rock bottom and how I faced my fears and have started to turn my life around.

I believe it is. One of my brothers had an Edsel when I was growing up and the other had a 57 Chevy. Of course, with 15 of us children, there were a lot of cars… and a lot of stories.

I probably spend way too much of my time running around those backyards of my youth.

Funny, I spent my youth trying to get away from my tiny little town and now that it’s gone, it’s the one place I want to be.
