LOST INTENSITY
I finally finished a book of poetry, Lost Intensity. It is now available through amazon's website. Coming up soon will be another collection of my poems entitled Even The Dregs.
This collection contains poems written from 1965 through 2015. One of my favorites is:
The Mountain and the Spider: A Fable
Nestling in the warm hard golden grass
of a mountain meadow,
three people watch the sunset
across a craggy gorge.
Above the fiercely rushing river,
a mountain rises sharp and pink
in dusk's reflected splendor.
The two young women murmur
quietly to each other; while occasionally
their little niece chimes in.
Their chatter dwindles to a close
as the mountain glows unearthly embers.
The three of them watch,
lost in their own thoughts,
as the color drains away.
The mountain's large whiteness hangs
against a black backdrop of sky.
Impressed by such immensity,
one of them turns to the child and says,
"Wouldn't it be neat
to be on top of that mountain?
You could see everything if you were up there."
The child, very small anyway,
and surrounded by so many
single living blades of grass, says simply,
"You couldn't see spiders."

Letter from the Queen!!!!!
A while back I sent copies of my books, See You In Seattle and The Misses Carruthers to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second. I got a thank you letter back. Of course it is actually from one of her Ladies - In - Waiting, but how exciting.

Working on some fun genealogy projects for Mother's Day and Father's Day. My Book by Dorcas Zuhl Eversaul, written in 1934, is her autobiography complete with facts about her ancestors.
The Log of the Good Cycle Vagabond written by Stan Spicer in 1947 is about his motorcycle trip down the West Coast of the USA.
