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!
That Which Is Dear
That Which Is Dear

That which is dear
is not of riches or fame.
That which is dear
is more wondrous:

The giggle of a child

The sigh of a lover

Sunrises on snow-capped mountains

Sunsets on glass-smooth seas

Fireflies on a summer's eve

leaves crackling on a crisp, fall morn

Spring buds

falling snow.

That which is dear
holds for all time.
