    Language of the Land

    As the years folded into one another like worn pages, I found myself drifting not only through forests and riverbanks but through the living language of the enslaved and the newly freed. By the time I reached Louisiana again...

    The Passage of Time

    Time, when you are no longer human, becomes a strange and fluid thing, not a river that flows forward, but an ocean that folds and unfolds around you, swallowing years whole and then spitting out memories with no warning....

    • Okay you both are adorable. I agree this is perfect for the holidays. You have a beautiful way you convey your thoughts in poetry.

      • Hello Fia!
        Me and Del really bring out the playful nature in each other. Yes, we are goofy when together too! It’s a very well rounded relationship. We are fortunate to have each other, I know.
        As for my writing, I rushed this one. It shows, it’s clunky. Perhaps I will edit it some, here and there. I don’t think I will be writing new material for awhile, lots to do. But maybe Iwill post older stuff. I have a few, lol.
        Thanks for the props, Fia. You’re like the head teacher here, so I feel vindicated when you give me a positive note. It means a lot!

    • Well the weather here finally decided to relax! LOL. 59 degrees in the morning is awesome! and you know how I love to write on my back patio. And yeah, drinking my mocha!
      We got lucky, how our creative writing led us towards one another. What an awesome reward.
      Smooches!
      November is so far away….. dammit.

    • Beautifully penned, Mark. Another excellent write with fantastic storytelling my friend. Sounds like you and Adel have a well rounded relationship, that’s a wonderful thing indeed. Amazing read as always. Appreciate you.
