Getting Acquainted
I spend most of my time playing alpha female for my pack of dogs. Lucy (Boston terrier), Harley (chihuahua). Hershey (miniature dachshund) and Jasper (standard schnauzer) are my entertainment and sometimes muses. Jasper is a puppy mill rescue dog and I'm in the intital stages of writing a series of vignettes of his life since the rescue contrasted with eduaction about rescues and puppy mills. I do actually have other interests than writing and my dogs. I love to scrapbook, watch ice hockey, listen to a variety of music genres and reading. My parents both were avid readers and passed that love on to me. I'll read a cereal box if you set it in front of me!
The Protector
The Protector

Ebon lion,
eyes of gold--
The Protector.
watching over dreams,
ever vigilant.
Woman stirs, whimpers
as dark images
creep into sleep.
He growls low.
Nightmares fade into
shadows of fear.
Calming heartbeat,
she sleeps quietly
as The Protector
stands guard.
