Shelburne Museum, Vermont

Along sidebar are pictures of the Shelburne Museum in
Shelburne, Vermont.
I recently visited the museum and highly
recommend it to everyone.
It takes a full day to view, if not a second day.
There were all kinds of exhibits that I couldn't
cover here.
Mary Cassatt: Friends and Family Webb Gallery.
Warren Kimbles America (Round Barn).
The Dentzel Carousel.
Quilts in bloom.
Just a wonderful place to visit.

Changing things a bit!

Hello everyone!
I apologize for the lack of new content.
I am in the process of changing a few things
around.
I hope that you will check
back in soon.
Thank you for your patience.

Every breath counts

Once upon a time,
there was a heart,
So disturbed by truth,
It was most certain,
One day it would desiccate and die.

Deep in the hollows,
hidden by shadows,
This ole heart would thump.

It's host was never a party,
saddened by the sulking,
realizations brought to view.

Until one day,
this heart attacked...
Sending this host for a loop!

This heart decided,
it was staying alive,
Be it with this host,
or a host that's new.

Thank you

Well folks, it's over!
To anyone who kept up with my short story
Thank you.
It was easier to continue the story than it was to end it.
I could have come up with all kinds of plots,
devious works, romance. But it was a long short story
remember?
I enjoyed writing it, and I hope that you all enjoyed
reading it. Since I can't tell how many people may have
kept up with the story, I don't know if I'll be writing
another or not in the future. I may just stick to my poetry.

If anyone out there did enjoy the story, please come by and
drop a quick comment. I would appreciate it very much.
Just a minute of your time is all I'm asking.
It helps to have feedback for many reasons.
For one, I will know what I should keep writing and
what I should not.

Anyway, have a great day to all of you.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Silverspoons (Part 6 short story) Fiction

"Well Ellie, although it was an exhausting trial,
I'm glad it's over."
"Me too Clayton." "What are you going to do from here?
"Lay low, stay out of the public eye as best I can."
"What about you Ellie?"
"Oh, I think I might grab the attention, unlike you,
I could use it." "So your mother got life in prison."
"You know Clayton, what goes around comes around."
"She didn't get what she deserves Ellie, but that will
certainly due."
"I feel bad for my father, but he'll survive."
"Did you see the look on his face when the verdict
was read?" "I just need to get away from it all, you know?"

"I was wondering Ellie, what are your plans for next week?"
"I thought you'd never ask Clayton, I'm going away with you."
"That's what I like, a positive thinker." "You remind me of
Melissa."
"I'm going to take that as a compliment Clayton."
"You should!" "I'm interested in getting to know you better
Ellie, I figure I got a lot of time to spare."
"I'd like to spend as much of it with you as I possibly can."
"Have you've become a mind reader Clayton?"
"That's exactly what I was hoping for."
"Don't forget your bikini!"
"Yeah, that's all I'm bringing..."
"Here's to a new beginning!"

Silverspoons (Part 5 short story) Fiction

"This time I didn't storm in." "Your secretary
showed me in." "When I got your message
that you wanted to see me, I came right over."
"I knew you would be calling me sooner or
later."
"Well Troy, your right there." "I have to admit,
I wanted to see you behind bars." "I've always
thought that you killed Melissa." "Your evidence
and other resources have proven your innocence."
"I wanted to tell you that to your face, and to apologize."
"I still don't like the fact that you aided my mother
with information about Melissa." "Why did you do it Troy?"
"I was angry with you for splitting us up. I found it to be a
way to get back at you, I didn't know she was
planning to kill Melissa." "I swear to that!"
"And of course, blackmail turned its ugly head."
"I know you can't believe it, but I did love your
sister." "I wasn't always good to her, but she knew
in her heart that I did."
"I can't say that this makes us friends Troy, but I
am grateful that you came forward." "Even if it
was with the intention of only clearing your name."
"I knew it would clear you as well Clayton."
"On that note, I guess I'll make my departure."
"Troy!, thanks."
"Yeah, see ya round Clayton!"
