  1. The support for Morningstar is pretty damn cool. It continues to be a very rewarding experience for this appreciative author.
  2. Terry's new venture into poetry...

    Just Desserts

    Absolutely scrumptious, Terry. Great word choices and I felt the rhythm as I salivated over a dessert that is my go to when I indulge. The third verse was my favorite, and the last two lines at the end of the poem were deliciously seductive. You done did good, my friend! Look forward to more. G.

    Prologue

    Oh, I've been waiting for this, buddy! Love the title.
  5. Hey, Reed! No Book 2 as of yet, but I haven't given up on the idea of it. It will take quite a commitment, but god willing, I'll be up for it. Glad you like Warren. When I first wrote him in Chapter one, I knew he was coming back and I worried at his reception. I needn't have, because everyone understood the change in him. He's a favorite of mine too, and he played such an important part in the story as the human in the pack. I try to read as much as I can and @Parker Owens is one of my very favorite authors. Glad you enjoyed my comments on his story, and I really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on Morningstar with me. Cheers and take care... Gary....
  6. Thank you so much Mancunian. While to some this story may seem farfetched, it really isn't. I have seen these connections with my own eyes, and know of a 'dancer' who is still with his 'client'. It was insta-love for them, and they have lasted about twenty three years so far. They used to live down the hall from me, and I knew them well. That is not the only instance I am familiar with, so I'm pleased you have seen similar. At this point, I doubt I will revisit them, simply because there is so much else I feel compelled to write once my muse awakens again. I never consciously decide these things. Thanks again for checking this little story out and sharing your thoughts with me. It is much appreciated, my friend.
  7. An exhilarating walk in the pouring rain. Only two kilometers but it was really coming down.
  8. Happy Wednesday/Thursday, all.
  9. Poor Mum. How is she doing now?
  10. This one was definitely from the heart. I am so thankful for whatever brought me here. No matter what I may write in the future, I have satisfaction I have done what I was meant to. Cheers!
  11. Aww... thank you for this, Terry. I have many gems in my life, and I am indeed a fortunate man. Glad you were moved by these.
  12. You're welcome, Terry. We all need reminders of what is beautiful about our lives.
  13. Back from my walk. I tweaked my groin when I slipped yesterday... felt it stepping into the shower this morning and again when I was cleaning the stall, but by the time I finished my 3K walk, it seemed fine. It's a nice mild day and I was tempted to go 5K, but decided on caution.
  14. Hey, all. Time to clean the stall and go for my walk. Dull day but shouldn't rain.
  15. Aloha, Albert. I hope all goes well with Steve's scan.
  16. Hey, Spikeman. "Cowboys and Aliens" is one of my guilty pleasures. Love that movie.
  17. Storms remind us of how small we are, but when the rage outside, that feeling of safety while wrapped in a blanket is intensified. I don't understand it... I just feel it. I am fascinated too. Falkor is gone now, but he was such an unexpected gift. How I used to fret about that cat. I miss him, and I often walk to his grave to say hello and tell him so.
  18. It was a great beginning to my day. And yes, I do have a fun side. Thanks, buddy.
  19. Yes. I said it all in this poem, and it was a heartfelt thanks for the friendships made.
  20. You're welcome, Terry. It gives me great pleasure when my poetry has an effect on a reader. When I am anxious or down, I seek out nature in the smallest ways. Sometimes a weed coming through an old patch of hay can capture my attention and divert my mind from my troubles. I truly believe we need that connection to the earth mother. It is in our genetic makeup to feel a part of this amazing world. Visit is the special kind of haunting that we welcome, for it is the soothing kind. I thought these poems belonged together. Cheers, my friend, and thank you.
