Hello books scattered across the floor, woodbine thralls aplenty That’s the way of life and words, and polished thoughts in my world of worlds away, here to stay when I pet the pages In a rush a thrush will linger for anything pretty from the soul Each note a rigamarole to those that haven’t a clue what to do with the lyrics There’s a diary with it all written down, somewhere, and I care to open it, every once in a while, just to see where the hell I’ve been Been fine, been mighty lively, been some kinda wild at times but it’s the quiet white space that says the most No one knows the ghosts behind the ellipses, or how eclectic I am with a dash— of demon I guess it comes from all those sermons where the book was thrown at me, when the pages used to make me shiver Books are very powerful things especially those that are unwritten rwood |

Just beautiful ... only ... somehow ... I see you caressing the pages rather than petting them Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

What a yummy treat! A long overdue Regina write! This is an awkward day for me, with my 18 year old leaving home, off to continue living her ultimate equestrian dream...taking care of a herd of Lipizzaners, and photographing them. I might cry a while, but reading here at Pips is great therapy! |

Can it possibly be? OMG How delighted I am to read you again and to know you are hell and wealthy. I mean well and healthy. Have missed you so. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

Regina, I very much enjoyed this my friend, I hope you keep writing, you have been missed; pages are missing; too many white without your touch to fill them with words and yourself. Hope you are well my friend. Sincerely Rick |
