Staying Near The Water
'Staying near the Water' is back to the basics. Simple from the gut writings about the common. Love, the fear of love, water's dire cry help, and much more are approached in 'Staying Near the Water'.

Mikayla (Pleasant Shade, Tennessee post office)

Sensibilities of society
Up Saturday dawning
When men feel most sorry
A woman is busy
Not waiting, but simply...
Most beautiful I've seen all morning.
En route peeked grass and trees,
On the forest floor there was a leaf.
None of these stopped
What they were doing to look at me.
Parcel—not even ready,
A hurried spring bloom
Mikayla accepted patiently.
The 'Staying Near The Water' collection is great for exercising your reading muscle. With brief and succinct poems and elegies. Become familiar with and practice creating in the beautiful tradition of tanka 5-7-5-7-7 and haiku 5-7-5 syllable rhythms.

About the Author

Thomas’ school offered Jane pills for her son’s ‘hyperactivity.’ Choosing contrary, Jane toiled with the boy. Neglecting her career, to teach him food, love, God, and people nature. One day, Jane informed her son that her Mothers’ cousin died. The ululating child’s recoil: “Why would a woman die? Why do we have to die?...I don’t want to die!” Thomas has been asking questions (and saying things he probably shouldn’t) as long as he can remember. “And just in case there was any wonder; usually it is not ‘okay’ to be yourself, do it anyway.” That is what I would say to Destiny (with a smile).
