the mountains echo in the background.
October sky never looked more charming
nor the sublime leaves of the trees so graceful.”
– Avijeet Das
As much as I tried to hold onto September, October gave it the tiniest nudge at midnight, and it fled. I do hope some of you are more welcoming than I found myself. Truly can't recall being so reluctant in the past to greet a new month. Shall look for the good and/or blessed in the days to come.
It's already a fact that we have some lovely submitted
compositions, so let's begin there. Interesting about the many titles
with the letter "L" so we'll start with Bruce Clifford's poems are
"Love Adore (the starlight in your eyes)," Beautiful Girl," and "Life
Lives." Yours Truly helped with "Love The Snow." Walt Perryman shows
"Dear Lord, I Have Amends," "Trail of Life," and "A Brand New Day." John
I Blair's is "In Love With The Earth." Bud Lemire's poems are "My
Beauchamp Family," "Love Isn't Imagining," "Exquisite Corpse," (actually
a game) and the timely "Halloween."
The interesting article is authored by one of our former
columnists Ara Parisien. The title "During Transformation" is derived
from the platform of hers described as her I AM Transformation series.
It sounds very reassuring.
Judith Kroll's "On Trek" is an encore that ties into the
Halloween side of this month. Both Marilyn Carnell in "Sifoddling Along"
and Melinda Cohenour in "Armchair Genealogy" chose to honor dearly
loved former family members in their columns.
Mattie Lennon's "Irish Eyes" updates us on the recent
Listowel Storytelling Festival and the participants. Thomas F. O'Neill's
"Introspective" describes the helpful lessons he delivered while
teaching in China. His students were quite receptive and he misses the
associations formed there. He includes some favorite photos from that
period.
Pauline Evanosky's column "Woo Woo" describes discovering if
you're ready to develop your psychic capabilities, if you feel you have
any. "Cooking with Rod's Family" features Melinda Cohenour's own
recipe, Best Potato Soup from Scratch. She shares all the details along with tips to streamline the preparation.
We are thanking our dear friend Mike Craner who keeps us in
working order as our Webmaster who is also co-founder. He and his wife
Susie are both very supportive, and are active, caring people.
See you in November!
