Thank you! I’ve been having this recurring dream of an amethyst sea, and reflecting on it gives me such inner peace. Now I even own many amethyst gemstones. Adelphina, your words about it being soothing really resonate. I love swimming just as the sun is setting.
It’s such an ethereal experience. The water feels as warm as the sunset, and the sky’s colors are breathtaking. Perhaps that’s why I dream of this sea, and I’m happy I was able to capture this experience in Amethyst Sea. I’m so glad it came across that way!

Thank you so much, Damian! I really appreciate you noticing the imagery and color– those beach sunsets here on the island, where I live are my biggest inspiration. Appreciate you too, friend!

Never thought of it that way. Nowhere to take cover, just have to take whatever Mother Nature throws at them.

This story started out funny but by the end it got sad and dark … Indeed, a story of true friendship. One friend wanted the other to hear him and the deaf friend wanted to find the other in the desert.
I found it funny how the devil-coyote spoke with a Texan accent, too! 😀Al

I used to have an audio of this one, but it disappeared. I hope you got my reply to your comment about Rabbit Jack; I ;eft a link to an Audio version so you can hear the accent.
By the way, the coyote didn’t speak that way; Cooter is telling the story, so it is him you hear. 🙂

Amethyst is one of my favorite colors.
This is a very soothing read.
Like reading lavender, if that makes sense 🙂
Beautifully done:)
