    @AC Benus : Leontyne Price is one of my all time favorites. Thank you for posting this. I seem to remember her in Aida, too...

    I will be thinking of you in the upheaval that is changing your world. I hope for things unexpectedly good and bright; I wish for peace and joy unlooked for; in your van you will carry my thoughts and encouragement.

    I have no words but hugs to give you.

    I am deeply sorry you have been affected so much by someone you love who has this illness. It hurts so much; that comes through in every word you wrote. I send you my warmest hugs.

    Chapter 9 - Brady

    Parker Owens commented on Bndmetl's story chapter in Chapter 9 - Brady

    Well - nothing like a bit of excitement at work! But what was November really thinking? Doubt he was thinking at all. I can’t wait to see what he is feeling and how he is coping with his own actions.

    Chapter 8 - Ember

    Parker Owens commented on Bndmetl's story chapter in Chapter 8 - Ember

    You wrote s party scene really well. I could have been in the restaurant. You also wrote a child’s part with great success - that’s really tricky. Loved this chapter.

    Chapter 7 - Ember

    Parker Owens commented on Bndmetl's story chapter in Chapter 7 - Ember

    Now it’s Ember who needs to wrap his mind around change. Will he continue to believe in what he sees and senses? It will he look for reasons to hate Brady for the past indefinitely?

    And so you lead us deeper into the forest of secrets and mysteries. Mother may have had the land valued, but her efforts hardly went very far. How did Sam and his kin know what was going on? And what will Finn discover as the new resident? Love how this is developing.

    Welcome! It’s s great community here, for readers and writers alike. Lots of people here will support authors with questions or in need of a bit outside reflection. I’m very glad you’re here.

    Two Floral Odes

    Parker Owens commented on northie's story chapter in Two Floral Odes

    I am in full agreement with @dughlas. These are wonderful sapphic studies of flowers. I can hear the buzzing of bees and see the colored sunshine on the petals.
  12. Parker Owens
    These are wise words, in my opinion. I, too, will contemplate them.
  13. Parker Owens
    Carlos, you made the world smile in this entry. How wonderful the reality that you describe is.
  14. Parker Owens
    Thank you for reading these snapshots of their lives. I keep telling myself I will write some more one day, but I have been distracted by life. I am glad these spoke to you.
  15. Parker Owens
    Thank you, Def. It has been hard, and the task is not complete. This form helps the poetry flow out, something that has not been easy these days.
  16. Parker Owens
    Very hard to let go, and photos will not suffice. But life changes physical circumstances, even as love and laughter remain. These need no boxes or moving vans. But what will the new buyer make of the dreams that echo in my old room beneath the eaves?
  17. Parker Owens
    Thank you for your patience with my silence. It is good to be busy, but my writing has suffered, I fear. I am glad you read these, and that they spoke to you.

    ATGB III

    Parker Owens commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in ATGB III

    Whew! I have sooooo much to catch up on. As part owner of an old house, remind me not to sell to our boys - They’d take me to the cleaners. But you have given me a chapter to make me smile.
  19. Parker Owens
    Thank you so much for your comment! I am glad you have been so engaged in the story. Andy is definitely in for a real change in his life - no more hiding is possible.

    The old house was made for joy and hospitality. The silence and cold must have been oppressive to its lovely aged bones. Writing these lines helped me channel the hurts and reclaim the love. Thanks for reading them with me.
  21. Parker Owens
    In large measure, we all recalled our joys and laughter, not our sorrows. Your hopes are exactly right.
  22. Parker Owens
    Thank you, tim. There is beauty in this sadness.
  23. Parker Owens
    Thank you, Dugh. It is bittersweet, yet it must be done. The love in that house will linger long after everything is moved out, as will the cherished memories.
  24. Parker Owens
    These lines were all I could write in a week. Too many things I must leave behind, too many tasks to do, and a whole lot of chores to accomplish. Yet if they help me and you carry the weight, then I am glad they found you.
  25. Parker Owens
    Thank you, Mac. This hasn’t been easy, and there is more to do. Yet sharing the experience eases the burden, lessens the weight. How glad I am that you liked “pink pregnant peonies.” I left them just waiting to pop open.
