Take My Hands
I Offer Them To You
Hold Them Tight
Never Let Them Go!!!
With all the time on my hands
I gave my hands one job.
My Hands -The Artist-
My hands paint everything in my life
they paint my weakness, my strength
they paint the fire in my eyes
they hold me when I'm cold
When I need them the most,
Like an architect, my hands colored my childhood,
In one touch they drew the plans and layouts of my life.
My hands *very articulate, are they?*
They continue to sew and show the way
Sometimes, my hands paint the truth
Sometimes, my hands paint lies
--- Painting hurtful images on drywall
My palms, my fingers embedded calluses from every fall
Creating images, healing my heart
Sometimes my hands are the only friend I see.
With no words to say
I caress the sky like a mime
My hands ride the wind,
My hands paint the world,
Young and pretty fingerprints
They feel, they hold, they grip
Don't let go!
Clever and cute
It's time for motherhood
My hands painted your first hold
Traced your first smile
A painting I treasure in my heart
Yes! A Rembrandt they became during birth
Now you're all grown up...:-(
Embarrassed to embrace the hold
One day when I'm old,
you will hold my hands and remember the gold.
My hands paint designs when it comes to love
sometimes a masterpiece
sometimes a mistake
sometimes my hands feel images I can't describe
Handicap moments when lost
--- My hands perfect when in love
They write songs when complete
So many interlock moment with you
Firm, the perfect match, my fingers spoke.
My hands -The Artist- they've been told!!!
Held so many times,
always meeting, greeting,
waving hello's and goodbyes...
((you see my hands, they smile too))
Painful, arthritis, cuts, bruises
pinching my way through reality.
Reaching holding on to dreams
clapping, snapping fingers, we are a team.
My hands age in every turning page
Shriveled and old
Still you embrace and love the hold
My hands touch and made a difference,
my hands employed by me!
My hands give and pray
Right and Left, they know their duty!
When they are bored, they tap-tap
and draw THAT annoying noise.
My hands know secrets, a fortune teller can't reveal
they hold the past, present, and future in every line.
I extend my hands, without flipping the bird
Thank you, Hands, I enjoy a good sign language show!
In my next life, or so, I will praise my hands
Yes so beautiful, tender, they love to feel.......
My Hands -The Artist-
I can't believe with all the time on my hands,
I forgot to mention I'm left-handed.

"Mine all Mine!"
A thief I long to be
Your eyes original like the moon and sea
A lover in the world............
An Anthology, you walk and talk like the word "AMOR."
The words you send, I nicely tuck under my pillow
Every note every line you left behind
I memorized till they became all mine
Unauthorized I scrape the concrete calluses off the tongue
Pirating the perfect dramatic monolog look,
Basking through the passage around your Bio,
Lost in the musky scent -around the sonnet of your aura light
Epic enough, I reach inside to feel every idyllic rhyme
A strong iambic meter curse, conjuring up the perfect verse
In you I lift a copy paste from your lips,
No need to credit the sources in your bliss
The sweetest undamaged sensual memorandum book
A moment I stole and sealed without copyright proof
My dearest Poet,
When you move across the room
I see a thousand arrows that follow from behind,
Indulged when you speak and point out a verse per verse
I am a victim pampered by your words,
Sponging every line, adding them to my crib notes
Improved wordplay that infringed my everyday diary
A haiku so tangible, it sets the perfect images in my dream,
Hypnotize after I read your first love poem
A printed feeling--
Borrowed from the sun

*Midnight Secrets*
In the dark, I came alive
I found my way
~into the light
Camouflage in lace, my skin glisten,
Towards the wind, I listen!
Skin of envy and gold,
My limbs suddenly unfold,
Gracefully I follow the air,
I found myself without a care,
Every moment, every feeling felt erotically insane,
Seductively, the night whispers my name,
A freedom flight
~into the night.
My breast, not of a little girl
Beyond the hazels, into another world
My life until this point had been a riddle
My fingers slither, a play without a fiddle
Circles with motion,
Vibrations and self-soothing lotion,
I touch myself gently,
Thinking of you relentlessly,
Looking around,
The night echoes a whimpering sound,
I want to see, and embrace the secrets inside me,
I squeeze the damp enigma charcoal sheets-
Moaning and moaning, repeatedly.
Tucking my silk pillows, groping my knees,
I rub my lids slowly, satisfactorily complete,
Falling back into the realm of counting sheep.
Partial Paper
-A poet in heat-
Ink carries its own tale,
When moonshine intoxicates your pen
Bottles of ink fill your mind
Composing symphonies on every line
Drops of passion all over the mask you wear
Nothing compares to black stains and broken nails
This part of you
"A CAN'T BE REMOVED" tattoo
The tough skin you'll ever live in
Fountain pens of split identities
Who Are You?
Sinking words like no other
Poisoned ink piercing every rhyme
Inferior poet, making the heart pure
Anger plus anger "GIVE ME MORE!"
You have a desire to paint all day,
Breathing and beating in every way
Toxic lines, from which ink flows
Inhaling images from the world
Deep and cold sorrowed emotions
True love is always easy to poetize
Dear Poet: "Ink Never Lies."
Pretty pink acrostic ink when she's nearby
Sugar and salt, Epic taste of reality
Ballads sang under the full moon
Sunny Sonnets, on any rainy day
Ode's of rivers from your past
A dark smile jotting down memory lane
Monologue tears brought under pressure
Loading cartridges of fresh Senryu and Haiku"
Dramatic red runs through your veins when all is done
Unfolding old and new propaganda's
POET: You are my favorite verse in every stanza
((Only this, and nothing more))
Writing is like giving birth
Kaleidoscope eyes
A universe of change
Round and round I go
My spirit of envy and gold,
The nascence of a new stone
Hazel room, vibrant lilac sky,
Deep orange haze in a tender place
Arms of sapphire and cornflower blue
Fuchsia beauty drip
All colors drifted-
The first day we met
Visions of dark slate-gray
Fade away
Firing up the new age gem
Turning and creating different stars
Magic mint skies
White antique petals follow the current of air
Opal dreams, clouds embedded with impurity
My heartbeat produces flashing colors
The palest amethyst bluebonnet forever fields
Flawless tear drop streams
Diamond shaped love
Ruby red promises to keep
Flowing into the deep
Every color spins new
The day I fell in love with you
Peridot lime green tint
A love as old and gray
Olive brownish sun
Honeydew skin
Our future, deeper than aquamarine
Every day you turn fresh new seasons in me
Changing the sequence in my colors and effect
Kaleidoscope Eyes
Reflect by the mirrors of you
Crystallizing everything
*The feline Texan way*
A fresh coat of paint," on my nails
Red shade of lips," on my smile
Solid oak charms," on my wrist
Country music," in my heart
Flattering eyes," a rustic, shell.
Join me, won't you?
In this "Country Girls Tale"
Every day I approach the morning dawn,
I follow the landscape towards the new Texas sun.
Surround by yellow roses and cactus galore.
I brand my name everywhere I go,
I allow you near the limits of my Wild West soul.
I keep it above the snake level everywhere I roll.
Got my head up like a cowgirl,
I slick my hands down my black leather chaps.
I tilt my bull hide hat leaving behind the sweetest Texas Trail.
I rode through many Texas midnight storm.
It took more than raindrops to knock me from my- "2-Steppin' world."
A windy ride, bruises under the hide taking it in like- "A Real Cowgirl!"
I got a tight grip on my saddle, holding on to a brighter morrow.
Enjoying the voices and the sound.
Tex-Mex lingo, round and round.
Ropers and Wranglers are how I dress.
I got it all covered, except for the top of my chest.
Living' it up^, down here in the south.
Erin' the lungs, shooting up the fun
Long necks' and kissing under a rodeo' moon.
Honky-Tonk, tattooing the mockingbird.
Down here:
You will find me sitting on the Country ground,
Peacefully staring into the eyes of the "Alamo Stars."
Flowing with the art found in the flag I hold.
I am The Wild!
I am The West!
"— A little crazy, but civilized!"
Enjoying the morning breeze,
Where the dew sits on the tip of Mother Nature's tongue.
There and only there you will find me,
Under the brightest Texas Star.

Sunlight sparkles on the shimmering pond
Its mirror like surface smooth as silk
Dragonflies dance across the water
Performing aerial acrobatics like a circus in the air
Water dipping on a fairground ferris wheel
Then plunging dramatically like a helicopter in freefall
Rising and falling skimming the water so gracefully
Transparent gossamar wings flapping in flight
Shimmering like a sapphire in the early morning sun
Dazzling me with your infinite beauty
Some summer days I wish I had wings
Seeing dragonflies' dancing makes my heart sing

Praying for the day I meet heaven
You being there sharing this moment
In paradise here I come with open arms
Listening to the song of a magical lullaby
I will bathe in your teardrops love
That special place drowns in a sea of roses
Kissing gently the eyes that they fall from
Our time must flow in ceaseless praise
Salted everyone in your deep beauty shines amazing grace
A piece of your heart's dreams
fantasies and love sails away in a treasure pearl
Spices of the soul I surrender to your drops
Falling from a great height like summer rain
All of the things that make us who we are
Softly as they run a river gently down the face
Unrhymed tercet

Rhythmic tones form a most beautiful symphony of love
A shining star as nature's splendor reflects Heaven's light
It's my destiny to learn a passion and purpose to use now
Even for a moment, I would not change for you're my love
And love is a blessing, an eternal gift that keeps on giving
Take your wish, shattered dreams—leave this world behind
And we shall seek and find a togetherness with lullabies pure
For each new emotion my heart shall always find you dearest
Sending warm golden stirring echoes dancing into your dreams
Softly lips whispering so gently in the air as a loving tune sings
As the warm sun lights up our footsteps treading on golden sands
Perfect maiden you're the siren ringing bells for midnight chimes
True precious bride inside the heart you have keys to all the doors
Walk with me hand in hand as the soul breathes and butterflies sigh
Ocean waves crash—kissing salt of the earth as windows flutter free
Safely sitting on the throne as the crown graces a fair maiden queen
Our special music reflects the precious nature of our love dearest
As we share enchanted moments with each other so real and pure
When I take your hand in mine, I feel the magic warmth of passion
When I gaze into your eyes, I sense the depth of our love forever
The delight I share with you dear one defies all human description
And so my love—enjoy the oneness we share as two souls together
As we bask in God's own heavenly light and music in His Universe
Our hearts unite as one in forming a most beautiful symphony of love

Hills come alive with sweet sounds of birds whistling tunes
Filled with harmonious peace, you sail within time
Gentle whispering winds through branches of trees call
When you dare to take the first step forward
Everything feels so easy embracing such beauty
Mixing voices of nature talk deeply flowering
Thrown into the unknown life is truly magical
A universe inside feelings explode in one gift
The soul eclipsing delight warmed with sunshine rays
Like a virgin being on guard of the tiger claws, lions, bears and snakes
Only when your starlight kisses clouds evaporate
Time continues and the butterfly waltzes freely once more
Crossing paths in this journey new beginnings grow
Small wild strawberries threaded upon a stem beg to taste
Opening one gateway within thoughts
Setting sail into another world beyond
With you salt of the ocean waves rise and fall
Upon rocks kissing pillar of strength
A cool breeze says goodbye upon your cheek
Loving spices land this boat on paradise sands where gold sparkles warm beams
When we meet at Heaven's gate batting lashes close entering a doorway into a dream

I don't want to be your sister
I don't want to be your mother
I don't want to be your wife
nor your mistress or a lover
I want to be the child
you birth on a wombless night
Sucking on your needless thoughts
Playing hopscotch in your mind
Building castles in your hand
take your footseps above the sand
I want to be the child
you birth on a wombless night
Your burnt sugar,Crystallize
Pour it across your sterile smile
till it sparkles in your eyes
Make you play games
grownups wish but never do
'Hide and seek,Catch-you're it
Pillow-fights, and Mr. Who'
I want to be the child
you birth on a wombless night
Make you soar where the winds blow
Reach the kite within your soul
I would camp inside your heart
Let our rhytmic beats impart
I would breathe inside your life
Bring the sun,and end your strife
I want to be the one
I want to be the inner child
which kiss your lips with bliss
and in your joys,reside
Your scent beckoned my weeping heart to painless flight;
amidst a garden where God dusts His pretty love.
Spring tints are pure and fragrant, free of guilt
Your hues painted another sunrise for my eyes;
when once I failed to catch the pledge of morn.
A seed of hope was born to white petals blush.
Though there are silhouettes of bitter yesterdays
must all the phantoms of illusions fade and leave...?
Your floating aroma stirred and shot my nerves;
inspiring a nightingale to sing some joyous laments;
It swayed with grace to dance on wind's despotic beat.
among the rustling leaves which hug the earth below;
So like the sun, which from distant horizon smiles;
it roused the sleepy world to begin the pen of baby prose.
The unfolding mystery of your petals brought
my bewildered mind to peacock's reflection.
Alas! All was transient. These eyes probe beneath
but were blinded by the intrusion of some stray shine;
Ambitions which from afar are building sprout;
t'is that which let this self to irksome doubt.
Lovely blossom of the wild, this sojourner nigh
to tame your perfume's sweet stinging scent.
A restless soul by some wicked, destiny pokes;
someone called--- but pity, I couldn't tell a note.
If by magic, a butterfly I could become;
Let it be over my being slowly span.
Then with you
(though the specters in our midst are fierce),
I could jet fly though miseries without fear.
But am just a mortal of faith that blows this wish
for only covenants call for my journey still?
I cannot be forever the one who would share your sweetness;
(Harken, fairies of blooms, this wilderness is not my lair.)
I shall not want to witness you wilt as no time left to stay.
Never again will you see me at day-break's bloom,
save something special for others to experience you.
This fleeting apparition I so adored;
promised me burgeoning petals.
"Be not afraid as seasons change,
beyond today, I won't be here to see that no harm
be done with all intentions to your sacred charm.
As today,
I leave you to Mother's Nature tender care,
for I must go to some greater musing-- heaven's ground.
Wilt not, as soon the rain will dash, refreshing you my dear.
If I return someday--
will your sublime scent still be here?"

* ~Dark Silver Haze~ *
(side#1) (side #2)
come taste life ---------- Heart-warming wine
old and stale, ---------- Jot down a line
unflavored, unpolished, --------- Mood changes hue
A sour, dim shade --------- To sweet silver blue
the lowest feeling ---------- How high the cost
eternal gray sky ---------- How much is lost
hollow memories ---------- Back payment due
A sour, dim shade --------- To sweet silver blue
weak limbs, overpower ------- Head shake and sigh
moments of lights -------- None left to deny
everything ends -------- Insight in view
A sour, dim shade -------- To sweet silver blue
torn from reality -------- Somehow I gain
low spirits of sorrow -------- Beauty from pain
bitter and dull, --------- As thoughts turn to you
A sour, dim shade -------- To sweet silver blue
**A deep Look Into The eyes of the Poet Destroyer**
~A Tim Ryerson Collaboration~
Iris sun fades and so does the day
whispers the carried in the silence of night glowing
Wishes floating on silver trails faraway
The image of your face will forever bounded to this world
Angels Brought you to me made a lightening
sparkling diamonds in the misting treasures gems so bright
Ice roses turns into a steaming jungle of quivering glass
Flashing in the distance, in the moon light
and all of its stars, that's where the angels dancing
A beautiful adventure picture sparklers on a winter night
A cold moon dressed in dark velvet
with a pearl milky white smile beams
Sparkling jewel crystal lights up
stars blinking silver awakening
warm invading darkness your light
My life has at last found its light and its hope
Soulful cries a wolf dressed in winter clothes
faraway over ocean waves
carries in a wind's whisper sweet music dances
A magical night that will set the spirit free
Silently breathes out a puff of magic sweetly
beauty enchants warmly etching strikes
frosted fingers cracking ice deeply echoes
Striking inside bells toll warmly skipping drumbeats
bouncing of chamber walls loving tunes
Believing in your love a dream
Which enchants music of the butterflies dance
howling clouds out steaming warm sighs fluttering warmly
I closed my eyes at the end of the road
and thought of the stars
and the reason earth spins around the sun

Enchanting chambers made of glass
Breaking reflections shatter falling into ruin
The history behind the tears and sorrow of a heart
Fragile echoes inside truth broken always sings
If this be loves beauty like dropping crystals splash
Speaks a language of one thousand tongues when the sparks fly
The soul released from thought
Faraway shadows cover a dream
When you have found what you're looking for
And always breathe in the beauty of nature
Silver buds glisten in morning dew
Millions of years before you or me
Weeping willow hangs heavy over us
These things and so many more
have made you and me understand
Blossoming sunshine shades golden
Crowned kissed by love in the summer rain
What a beauty to wake up to birdsong
Carried on gentle winds when they sigh
Hearing screams from the raven far up in the mountains
Secrets of the water flowing whispers
Our lives have a meaning here on this earth
Stars circle your space in another realm
Thoughts and dreams put together as mosaic
A moon smiles as shadows dances to a joyous tune
The smell of pine needles tickle in the nose
As a sun lights our footsteps with golden harmony
Commitment strong and sense of purpose is the key to life

Fresh sand garments
The Mental Colosseum floor
Self-infliction's--waging wars
A mask, tiny holes
Breathing heavily
Dancing around my toes
Broad carbon steel
Safe behind my will
Equipment of revenge
Fencing the world with my eyes
I bow, with the morning dew,
My mind a dual in its own world.
When the curtains lift,
I prepare myself with a weapon--
Epee Crest to protect my chest
A sword sharper than fangs
I circle my blade around the door knob
Ready to face the world
Practicing --in hopes today, I won't retreat
"Fencers ready!"
A magical knightress
Painted in white
"Let's dance!"
Queen Amri "VS" The Damsel
Wishing it was over
Stainless steel echoes
"Every poke counts"
Hoping & Taking
No room to disengage ---I retreat
Peacefully I secure my stance
On Guard!
I lean in, I disengage ---I flee
Back again, I lunge
The Queen is too smart to retreat
I -Amri, parry away from the argument of the lunge.
Recoil & Double tapped
In and out….. I'm struck
Back to the drawing board
On guard, I stand like a statue
Out of breath; feels like I'm dying
Yet I am still fighting.
The Queen knows what to do.
I Yield, She Wins!
Raising our foils
---At the on guard of another day
I move in swiftly, cutting like razor blades
Using refreshed energy
24 / 7
I attack, She provokes!
Sand runs its course
Victorious against the queen
Touch – tied – triumph -- Touché
Standing on my own 2 feet
I am the

Conquering The Battles Inside

Inside a knowledge turning cogs on this wheel
born from the darkness a heart rules supreme
fear in one wish looking towards tunnel light love
All that will remain when all turns to dust threads of life dance
kneeling weak alone humble and meek finding a balance
Weeping rivers flow haunting sea waves turn the key
truth is something beautiful touching deeply chords
Chilling whispers rise warm oasis warmly embraces hold
creeping inside beauty beams within shadows
Dancing starlight kissing ocean reflections twinkle
sparkle glisten teardrops coldly ripple out
Floating on a cloud of breath precious beauty
a mystery that means something special
finest mother of pearl gem coloring rainbow jewel shines forever
Frozen dew quicksilver lining echoes time answers always
cold as ice crystals dazzling diamond stillness pure
Frosted vision clear cutting ivory white one cool snowflake falls
baptism in regal glowing crowning full face splendor enchants a ball
walking along golden strands looking across the sea midnight strikes
Sleepless nights held over and back destiny calls your name
utopia faraway dreaming our love complete

"A Flowers Wilt"
Witness the small existence
that abides the beauty of-----------
Freelancers all around,
Just to get a good look.
A baneful abrasion, the flower took
It captivates you -------------
Reels you, steals from you,
Until you pick the right flawless touch.
Dandelions swaying thin,
Here we fall like petals.
Ready to exploit, the beauty of-------
Inhale the fragrance,
Courtyard azure eyes,
Embarking in a wishful eternity,
A crush they become, when loveliness up and left.
A bully against arrogant threw feminine perfumed veils
Tulips waiting for the better auspicious sky
Asters claim the eclipse's,
-dinginess censors it from the brilliance of the sun.
A lonely rose
In My Helix World-
The out-and-out are born.
Cries in the dimness,
A sweet Lotus echo
Slight yelps of agony carried off by pollen breeze.
The earth revolves to fast,
Injections of herbal essence in the wind
For a split second, we feel pixie dust
Channel the essential, it fades
Earlier beauty, calmness-
A flourish smile,
Rusk of flower, a bluebird's bread.
Like candles and dew, they stream and limber energy
Opposing others of its humanity,
Against the command of its importance,
Pierced by its own elegance,
Thriving slowly of its own will,
A short story, gone astray!
Tonight, we plant a tree,
The Flower wilts
The gardener cries
~~The Wind~~
Look into my eyes
Follow me into a world of ecstasy
There and only there
Will you find the peace to unwind
Beautiful brown eyes not blue
Shady lids, stunning ocean view
Embracing every word
Hear the wind whispers your name
Come with me
Drown with me
Into the abyss of loving rain
Embrace this moment as I draw you in with words
Release you with the warmth -------I was there
I Share--I take
Into my arms
I am the charm
Around your neck
Around your wrist
Listen to the voice from my beating heart
It yearns
The freedom of touch
The freedom of speech.
Of love,
Of purity
Like the wind
I'll find my way
Into your heart
Arouse the cheerful energy
Of your insecurity and pen
Follow me into the sea
There we will fall into the deep
Build sand castles
Around dreams of reality
Slip into my aura light
Set to the rhythm of the oceanic night
Now, listen to the breeze
It's called out your name
It's only a matter of time----------------
You'll find yourself calling out...... mine

Dedicated to all my loving friends & fans :-)
My heart skips a beat my love each and every time
I'm with you my dearest sweet and lovely Darling
Since the passions and feelings you stir in me
Touch the very depth of my inner being and soul
And render themselves not to mere words only
Suitable for depiction, exhibition, understanding
Rather to the image and strength of your beauty
And your rapturous desire and feeling as they
Defy rational attempts at any simple description
For you are the most radiant beyond all compare
My heart skips a beat my love when we lie together
Locked in a most enchanting embrace and kissing
So deeply, palpably that we run out of breath and pant
Anxiously at what comes next in our mutual longing
And crescendo as our passions explode and express
Themselves in a most hungry trail of urges and desires
Which makes finding love for us all the more magical
Pairing us together like a couple of star-struck kids
Lost impossibly in moments of hope and imagination
In a timeless world of love, desire, emotion, and oneness
My heart skips a beat my love when we walk so closely
Hand-in-hand talking, laughing, and living our dreams
Confronting the world and taking on whatever comes
Next as we steer our ship of destiny on a true course
Where our like-thoughts and deep love for each other
Mean something quite special that only Dreamers and
Poets can imagine and set to melody and harmony in perfect
Verses of sheer passion and delight painted onto a canvas
Of unending happiness where Heaven and Earth are one
My heart skips a beat my love when we're forever one

To get my heart in the right rhythm, I have to catch your inner you
Holding hands kiss colors inside sunshine warm paradise
Together we share our dreams with a glass of pink champagne
Celebrating a living memory of eternal beauty sparkling gems glisten
We will find ourselves in an everlasting magical journey
Where the golden barley shakes silken softly whispers in our breeze
I'll walk with you through ages of time
Uniting as one shadow embraced dancing silver treasure
Pure angel of dawn, you've stolen my heart
Weightless without body floating beautiful falling inside the soul's desire

There is beauty in the colors of the sky before dusk begins to fall,
just as there is at sunrise, when dark night gives way to morn;
beauty is in the fierce anger of a roaring, tempestuous storm.
It is in the quiver of an orchid and in the pride of a thorny rose,
in the burst of fiery color on a dying leaf before finally it falls
beauty is in the innocent eagerness of a young, pale green sprout.
It is in the placid silence of a forest lake, far from all the city noise,
it is there at high tide, in the rage of waves against the shores
and in the conflict of feelings belied by the calmness of your voice.
There is beauty when you love though you feel it is for naught,
in the quiet acceptance of fate, refusing to turn love into hate
and in that sadness we bear, for deep within, you know I care.

Poem of the Day - 28 September, 2015

Two worlds come together
As sweet music flows gently
leads into a different zone
One circle of a heartbeat skips
A single moment our life changed forever
Paradise simply exists golden delicious
Hidden from this world one bounty feast
Life every ounce trusting one promise living
Although at times some tears may drip
Colors kissing love inside a mist
Passion spreads warm fine spun gold
With you fate decides destinies call
No distance can prevail
In your beauty of understanding
You're viewing the second half of my soul
A dream of the truest form develops pure
Under the bright moonlight beam
wings grow tender feelings fly high emotions
As fate determines what is meant to be will be
Within sweet sounds of joy
Happiness blooms inside diamond shining light
Laughter rings out the bells echo deeply
It's called true love in you
Where trumpets rejoice finding heaven

A yellow song about autumn
Leaves falling slowly
May nature embrace me gently
Birds mixing tunes
Of such ecstatic sound
Rising a sweet melody
Creeds and song carried with the wind
in the highest tempo
Kissing one heart priceless gold
Crossing bridges and mountain majesty of the world
Rustling softly breathless whispers treasure
Most quiet need, by autumn sun and candlelight
Like sweet thoughts in a dream
Dazzling of wonder as magical charms
floating flutters gently on a breeze
Delightful day it is for all who dwell
delicately blown upon warm sunlight rays
The sumptuous yearning of summer that left
Breathtaking feeling dance circles around
Viewing elements and seasons as they change
Deeply touches embracing beauty inside
Into the dawn's early and tender caresses
You stand in front of the sun
morning dewdrops upon your vision

Always inside living thoughts
Once held a vision adoring thee
Beholding beams though these eyes
Star spangled one look totally breathless
This heart's calling your name precious
Together uniting strengths join within power
Making hopes and dreams come alive
Saying onto myself breathtakingly gorgeous
Adding this truly wonderful music
Into the soul princess cut deeply singing tunes develop
In every echo out of this world
I wish to retake the perfect soft breath held
Melting golden feelings burning gasps warmly sigh
Why do I love you so
Wearing the glass slippers
Fragile as a newborn butterfly taking flight
In all the flowers freshly plucked
Standing out most beautiful
A diamond rose stunning dewdrops sparkle
Touching, kissing, loving you forever more
Holding someone special always showing them
how deeply appreciated they are
Fireworks display our passion to share
in a world filled promise
Conveying the love inside each tiny seed
picking you one precious gem
Your words are sparkling wine
your presence divine
Your beauty makes me comfortable dizzy
Intoxicating drunken in anything you wish
becomes the soul command
In the distance ~ the dying sun forever sleeps with you one dream obeys
A Collaborated Poem 07.11.2015
Anne-Lise Andresen, and Liam Mc Daid
Dear mother nature you're supposed
to make the world a good place to be in
Today the sky had hues of orange
Life begins every day when the sun arises
Mixed with the fire's toast
drinking of daylight
Nature's wonderful respect for darkness
A moon shared the sky
And you will never feel disappointed
To be born again off you
with the sun setting
Dipping down golden over mountains
Like a soul lost awaiting to be found
A slim narrow smile pearly shines
Awaiting with anticipation
Night closing in as twilight holds a dream
The master's at work
the divinity of a deity
Whispers of a breeze through fir trees
Rusting branches sway dancing freely
Surely created a deep impression inside me
Life begins every day
when the sun takes center stage
A sharp cutting breath hits home
Diamond cutting thoughts invade
Sailing away into another world
The moon and the stars come out in full force
Sharing a daydream as the night closes in
Your eyes carry the sun peaking through the clouds
Destiny living and breathing the same air
Until bliss becomes your daily drink
Anne-Lise Andresen, and Liam Mc Daid
A Collaborated Poem
"Here is my secret. It is very simple: one sees clearly only with the heart.
Anything essential is invisible to the eyes."
"Le Petite Prince"
Antoine De St. Exupery
touch me and
i'll touch you
we don't do this on a whim
measure twice cut once
but always from the heart
some use words rarely used in conversation
let these wonderful poets tickle that market's fancy
there are those
knit you a scarf from yarns of clouds
warm your day with a smile reflects
the clean heat of a nineteen nineteen sun
others who write you a poem you can share with a child
visions painted in words
cups of hot chocolate with those teeny weeny marshmallows
children's grandiose proclamations of love with every sip
for them the ambrosia of Gods confirmed by their laughter of joy
you see hopscotch squares loosely drawn in chalk
you see your daughter hear an echo for the first time
some poetry does that conjures a thousand pictures of pure innocence
also poetry that sings
with rhymes that are natural,
neatly placed in the story being told
sometimes the kind
occasionally trips on the page
love doesn't demand conditions
sonnets neatly metered
roll off the tongue
even if it twists a bit leaves you with a knot
stick it out and laugh it straight easy as that
we're here for each other
people before words
let's love each other just because we can
touch me and
i'll touch you
we don't do this on a whim
measure twice cut once
but always from the heart

If tonight I could paint a moonlight
sprinkle it with endless love and childlike magic
sail away with you across an azure sea
on a vessel to happiness
If tonight I could close my eyes
dance with you through the chambers of my heart
wrapping you in the endless emotions of my soul
and let all my Pasionata set us free
If tonight, just like the wind
felt on your moon glowed cheek
through the silent distance
would you remember me
a fresh sweet scent
of last gardenia
on yesterday's linen sheets
a wonderland of happily ever after's
through fields of daisies
where the river meets the sea
little by little
dare to dream a dream
wonder a bit longer
lose yourself
where the crimson bleeds it's rose
Tribute Contest hosted by Silent One
Copyright © Tim Smith | Year Posted 2015
The family had just moved into an old castle in Scotland;
mother, father and their only daughter, Emmie, that they loved so deeply.
Emmie was only 12 years old, and so innocent and beautiful.
One night, she was woken up by a dripping sound;
an echoing sound of water drops in a sink;
rhythmic and terrifying.
She sat on her bed, and suddenly appeared a free floating arc of strange light.
It's that time of year again: Halloween night.
Doors flew open and shut; strange voices and footsteps started.
She was so frightened, that she almost threw up.
Emmie made the sign of the cross, and plunged into a thicket of thorny wild roses.
Terrified, excited and ready to run out of the house in 20 seconds,
she overheard whispering words: "All beauty must die."
The voice was so deathly, that it sent chills through her spine.
It did not make it any better that it sounded too close to her ears.
Her nightdress being torn by rose thorns like papers in a paper shredder,
she ran as fast as she could; not back to the old castle,
but away from the creepy voice, and strange events
in the old castle.
Exhausted, she searched for a place she could find rest
"All beauty must die" the voice visited
her unceremoniously once more. "What do you want from me?
Is it wrong to be born beautiful? "
she asked, wondering where she got her courage from.
The energy to scream or run departed her,
the moment she saw a woman dressed in white,
levitating in the air, and moving towards her;
a horrid face that carried the night's darkness,
looked decayed, with worms crawling out from it.
Remember this is a true story about Emmie;
she gets chills just remembering the events of that night……

Chapter 1 (21:25)
Chapter 2 (19:10)
Chapter 3 (14:56)
ROLLING was named best documentary at the Independent Film Project conference for works in progress, held in New York City. The film was also one of 14 new American films chosen by the Independent Film Project for screening at the European Film Market, which was held in conjunction with the Berlin Film Festival.
While Berland and her cinematographer both shot footage for ROLLING, the documentary is primarily filmed by the three participants via video cameras mounted on their chairs: Buckwalter, a clinical psychologist paralyzed at 17; Wallengren, a TV writer with five children who suffered from ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), which stole his mobility and, finally, his ability to speak and breathe; and Elman, who was the business manager for a department at the UCLA School of Medicine until multiple sclerosis put her in a chair.
In the film, Buckwalter calls himself a "proud gimp" and says, "My blessings don't stop it from hurting." Each participant captures the joy of living as well as the pain. Buckwalter films himself practicing with his band, Siggy, camping with his wife and friends, stressing aching shoulders by repeatedly lifting himself in and out of his car, and during a frustrating doctor's visit.
Elman, the divorced mother of a daughter in medical school, is seen advocating for Californians for Disability Rights and a bill called the "V. Elman Community Living Act," which would make it easier for the disabled to live at home.
Wallengren is seen deftly coaching his sons' basketball team, dealing with awkward comments from well-meaning people at a birthday party, and using dry humor to deflect difficult situations.
"Even though the film started out as a way of understanding the experience of being in a wheelchair, in the end, it's really about life," says Berland. "It's not about feeling sorry for someone with a disability."
Copies of the film will be available in the spring. Please send a request via the feedback tab on the bottom of the page or leave a comment and we will add you to an email list to receive notifications about the film's availability.

> Before you do anything, check that cut on your arm. Then you should probably check character stats. At some point you also need to eat drink and whatnot.
> But now that you are in the Ruins of Alph, try and see if there are still any trees in the area.
Either you, or maybe Vesta herself can snap a few twigs and branches for her to eat.
The cut on your arm is fine; it's not too deep, and has almost stopped bleeding already – more of a graze than a gash. Besides, it's your left arm, not the one you need to aim and fire the Handgun.
As for stats... You look Vesta over briefly and determine that she has
stats, but not others; reality seems to be a bit hazy on whether or not she counts as a Pokémon. She has 194 HP and 286 Special Attack, but that's all you can work out.
There are plenty of trees around the border of the ruins.
>Anyway, do we still have anything left to eat?
If there are, then it's probably best to eat while traveling.
If there aren't any food available, maybe there are berries around?
If the food requires cooking, can Vesta's palms be turned into a makeshift frying pan?
> I'd say to find some sort of shelter before you eat or drink. There could be something there that could help you, and I'm a bit worried about the sparks.
There are two entrances to the ruins themselves that you can reach from here, and also the little hut that the scientists studying the Unown lived in. You decide to shelter in there, after gathering up a few sticks for Vesta.
Inside, you cook and eat the last of the outsize European Eels, and drink the last of the water.
A glance out of the rear window tells you that the flames are coming closer.
It is starting to get dark.
The infection spreads. Elm is Mildly Inconvenienced.

Phase 1 Design Review Meeting
Thursday, April 28, 2016
6 p.m.
George Di Ciero City and County Building
1 DesCombes Dr., Broomfield
Zang Spur Room, located on the lower level
The purpose of the April 28 meeting is to review the Design Development Package for the project with the Open Space and Trails Advisory Committee (OSTAC) and the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee (PRAC). The previous conceptual design that was presented to the two committees in November 2015 is now refined and shows more detail about how each of the elements of the plan will actually look. Citizens are welcome to attend the meeting!
Project Location:
The McKay/Lambertson Open Lands Master Plan area is 43.8 acres of undeveloped open land next to the McKay Lake Open Space (which is in the City of Westminster) and located northeast of West 138th Avenue and Zuni Street.
The highest priority features of the overall master plan concept for the area were incorporated into a 16-acre Phase 1 Plan. It includes a balance of active and passive uses immediately west and south of McKay Lake. The intent of the Phase 1 Plan is to provide public recreational opportunities, park amenities, trails, environmental education facilities, and an open space buffer with habitat enhancements
Background and Current Status:
Broomfield's Open Space, Parks, Recreation, and Trails Master Plan identified the area for potential park improvements and open space preservation and includes regional trail connections across the property.
In 2013, an overall master plan concept was completed for the entire McKay/Lambertson Open Lands area. The City Council directed staff to work with residents that serve on the Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee (PRAC) and the Open Space and Trails Advisory Committee (OSTAC).to create a stand-alone master plan for Phase 1 improvements (Phase 1 Plan) that can be built with only the McKay Landing development contribution toward a regional park ($1,381,083).
In 2014, a Phase 1 Plan was developed with extensive community input and involvement. City Council heard a presentation on the Phase 1 Plan at its Study Session on March 17, 2015.
On August 25, 2015, City Council unanimously approved a consulting agreement with Root House, LLC, for the Phase 1 design. Design processes began in September. Design documents will tentatively be completed in July 2016. With approval from City Council, staff will then bid the Phase 1 project for construction.
October 22 and 27, 2015 - Broomfield staff met with Root House, LLC and several subject matter experts in the bike park, adaptive sports, fitness and play industries to discuss schematic and conceptual design of features to be included in the Phase 1 Plan. Members of PRAC, OSTAC, and local community members with expertise in these areas were also invited to share their personal experiences, ideas, and comments.
On November 18, 2015, the Parks and Recreation and Open Space and Trails Advisory Committees met to review and discuss the McKay/Lambertson Open Lands Phase 1 park design. Results were also presented from the November 9 and 13 public engagement and the online survey were also presented. See online survey results below. Representatives from Root House Studio, LLC presented the plan vision to create something truly unique to encourage people to be active outdoors. The conceptual park design reflects the four major regional landscapes of Colorado; the plains, riparian zones, foothills, and the Rocky Mountains. Natural materials will be used to create unique spaces conducive to many types of outdoor activity and play. Committee members and the public provided valuable feedback about the proposed plan.
An online survey was available in fall 2015 for citizens to comment on the features proposed in the Phase 1 Plan.
View survey results and comments
or see the
total number of votes per feature
The Phase 1 Master Plan includes the following amenities :
1) Adventure Playground
An unstructured play environment at McKay Lake will create an atmosphere of free play that will invite children and adults to touch, interact with, react to, and build an important and lasting bond with nature and natural elements.
2) Nature Fitness
The nature fitness course will allow people to choose to move through different natural obstacles to help increase balance, strength, and spatial awareness.
3) ADA Accessible Bike Sports Trails and Obstacles
Adaptive sports trails and obstacles will be fully integrated into the nature fitness course and bike park to provide fun and challenging options for people using hand-pedal bikes, wheelchairs, and other adaptive devices.
4) Bike Park
A bike park will give people of all biking abilities a fun place to test their skills. It will include a pump track and several obstacle courses.
5) Habitat Enhancement
A mix of native trees, shrubs, and grasses will improve the habitat on the south side of the McKay Lake dam embankment.
6) Lake Overlook & Environmental Education
A strategically-placed picnic and educational pavilion on the knoll overlooking McKay Lake will allow people to view the lake, observe wildlife, bird watch, and relax and enjoy the outdoors.
7) Trails
A system of 8' wide, ADA-accessible trails with approximately
0.8 miles of soft surface trails and 0.7 miles of concrete trails is proposed.

Workers' Compensation Judges' Mediation Procedures
David W. Henry
Please list the offices at which you will mediate a claim.
Are you willing to mediate claims that are assigned to you for hearing and decision?
Are you willing to mediate claims in which one or both parties are not represented by counsel?
Yes, but I prefer not to do so. I do not feel as if I can advise an unrepresented claimant, and he or she may need advice as to whether the proposed settlement is not only fair, but in his best interests.
Do you require the parties to execute an agreement to mediate? If so, please describe briefly the matters addressed by the agreement.
No, I never have, as I do not do my own cases.
How much time do you typically allow for a mediation session?
If it is a "regular" session, I generally will do one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I have held "special" sessions where each case is given only one hour.
Do you require the parties to submit a pre-mediation memorandum? If so:
Yes, in fact if they do not provide them within the time limit I set, there will be no session.
What information must be contained in the memorandum?
I ask that they set out their position on the issues and what evidence they are relying on to support their position. I also want to know if any demands or offers have been made. They are also asked to tell me what they believe would be a fair settlement. Counsel is advised that they need not copy this to the other side. Again, I feel this is permissible as they are not my cases.
What documents, if any, must accompany the memorandum?
If this is a "regular" session, I need the evidence they will be relying on in the underlying litigation. If those documents have already been provided to the judge who is hearing the matter, they do not need to send me copies. I will get the file from the judge hearing the case if it is assigned to the Pittsburgh office. If it is assigned somewhere else, I will work something out. Either the judge can send me copies, or the parties can.
How far in advance of the mediation must the parties submit the memorandum and accompanying documents?
I generally require that I receive everything at least one week before the scheduled session.
Do you conduct a pre-mediation conference? If so, please describe what takes place at that conference.
Do you require all participants (claimant, adjustor/employer representative, counsel) to attend the mediation personally? Under what circumstances do you permit a participant to attend by telephone?
I prefer to have everyone there, including the adjuster. However, I will conduct sessions without certain parties if there is a good excuse why they cannot be present. On the "special" sessions, the cases have been from outside offices, and the claimant would be required to travel a great distance. In those cases, I have allowed just the attorney to be at the session, as long as claimant understands they must be available during the time the session is scheduled. In most cases, the adjuster will not be there, and that is permitted. Again, they must be available if we need them during the session.
Once you receive a mediation request, what is the usual amount of time elapsed until the mediation takes place?
I try to get these scheduled within four weeks. This allows the parties to get their memos together, and also allows time for me to review the file.
Describe generally how you conduct a mediation session.
Describe each step of the process.
I generally start by bringing the parties together in the biggest room available to me that day. I explain the general process we will be following that day. I explain to the claimant that anything that is said that day remains within that room, unless they want it conveyed to the other side, or the judge hearing the case. I also explain that as the session goes on, I may want to speak alone to one side or the other. I also may wish to speak to just the attorneys or just the claimant. I let the claimant know that I will not be speaking to the judge who is going to be deciding his case if we are unable to settle. I also tell the claimant that many in the system feel frustrated, and if he or she needs to vent on someone involved with the system, he can do so within reason. After a discussion of the general issues, such as injury date and type, average weekly wage, and current status of the case, I will then start discussing matters with each side. How things proceed after that depends on how those discussions go. I really do not have one game plan that I could set forth. I basically try to get the parties to bring themselves closer to an agreement, step by step.
Indicate whether you use a facilitative (i.e., helping the parties to communicate and generate their own solutions), evaluative (i.e., discussing the strengths and weaknesses of each party's case and/or offering an opinion as to the settlement value), or mixed approach.
I would have to say a mixed approach, but I have found that within our system, it is weighted toward the evaluative side.
Are you willing to conduct more than one session per claim?
Yes, if I think it would be productive. If I feel the parties are not really interested in reaching a settlement, but might just be looking for an "advisory" opinion based on their evidence, then the sessions are over.
Is there anything else the parties should know or do in advance of the mediation?
Counsel should prepare their clients for these sessions. They should understand what the session is for, and if that is not the goal they wish to achieve, then this is not the route for them. Other than that, participants should
be on time

Access to Higher Education Diploma (Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Maths)
I was made redundant and had trouble finding work, so I decided that I wanted to pursue a career in engineering. I had just moved to the area and New College was local to me and some friends had recommended it.
My Access course has been fantastic but also challenging. The teachers are very supportive and helpful. The facilities are great and I'm a regular user of the library. I plan to continue my studies at university.
Emma Maclennan
Early Years Foundation Degree
It was gentle persuasion from my manager that found me enrolled in The Early Years Foundation Degree! Approaching my 40th birthday I had not undertaken any formal qualification since my NNEB in 1993 and therefore was initially concerned that I would not be up to the job. However within a few weeks of enrolling my confidence soared and I found myself thoroughly enjoying this new challenge. My tutor Dawn was instrumental in supporting me to believe that I could achieve the foundation degree and remained fundamental in supporting me throughout the course. Alongside this the support of the other lecturers Nikki and Sarah was crucial.
My favourite aspect of the course was the teaching sessions that I found both informative and engaging. We were a small group of 12 students and we bonded within the first few weeks. This environment made for lectures that were not only informative but thought provoking and interactive. We were encouraged to contribute throughout which led to interesting debates, discussions and lots of laughter too!
As a practitioner working within a Children's Centre I found that the subjects covered were important and relevant and I firmly believe that they have made me a more reflective practitioner. I also feel that it gave me greater confidence as a practitioner and I was able to share ideas and knowledge gained throughout the course with other staff members at the Children's Centre. The observational visits from my tutor Dawn were beneficial and Dawn was able to contribute further to my learning by observing my practice.
With a family at home I can't say studying was easy but what I can say is that it was worth every minute especially when my family told me how proud they are of of me. I am now studying for my BA in Early Years Education at Bath Spa University and fingers crossed will achieve my degree this year! I'm not sure what follows next but I know that The Early Years Foundation Degree has provided me with the confidence to move forward and do whatever I choose!
Julie Kent
Being in my mid fifties, with two grown up children (one of whom was already studying for a degree in Bristol) I was initially very unsure about whether this was the right decision for me. My colleague and I were running a successful village pre-school; I held a relevant level 3 qualification in early years; had worked as an NVQ assessor. I felt I had the knowledge and experience necessary to do my job as an early years practitioner very well, so why should I take on the extra work involved in gaining higher qualifications?
One of my main reasons for doing a higher education course was that I wanted to become an early years professional, giving me a voice and influence within the early years field and with other professionals.
I immediately felt at ease when I came to visit the programme leader Dawn. Everyone I met at the college was helpful and friendly and also genuinely interested in my views and opinions. On a more practical note, as I was travelling in from Aldbourne the location was ideal. The New College team worked very hard to help us feel confident as students and foster in us a sense that we did actually belong in this place of learning.
The course was hard work and certainly quite stressful at times particularly when assignment deadlines loomed, but we supported one another and had steadfast support from all the tutors.
I completed my foundation degree and went on to gain a full degree at Bath Spa University. Since achieving my BA (Hons) I seem to have been bitten by the HE bug and have recently began working towards a Masters module.
"For anyone wondering whether higher education is for them I would encourage them to grasp the opportunity – it is well worth the effort."
Niki Willows
Early Years Foundation Degree
I chose the Foundation Degree in early years to continue my professional development. I'd done various short courses around my job but wanted something with a bit more depth. I was concerned about essay writing and my IT skills as I hadn't really done anything since I left school (many years before) but there were actually study skill sessions in the first term of the course which really helped.
I found the modules varied and they built on my existing knowledge; Making Learning Visible was particularly interesting as I was working in a District Specialist Centre at the time and the observations for that piece of work really helped me pinpoint some areas to work on with one autistic lad. The Guest Speakers bought a new dimension to what I knew about Early Years, after the Forest School session I went on to find out more and eventually became and Advanced Forest School Practitioner myself.
The course certainly improved my practice and also made me a much more critical thinker which gave me the confidence to challenge and change things within my working environment.
I went on to Bath Spa to do the full BA and again this was fascinating; the Reggio module gave me a whole new slant on the pre-school environment and the importance of process not product. This tied in well with the Fundamental Skills and Yoga module combined with a module about Creativity which broadened my thinking on not only how capable children are but how one can learn so much outside the traditional classroom or setting.
I went on to work for a Local Authority as their Play Development Advisor encouraging staff to get children outside to learn and also working with communities on their public play spaces. I am currently self employed as an Outdoor Play Consultant running staff training sessions and now come back to college to Guest Speak and run outdoor workshops for a variety of students. Last week I had a mention in Nursery World Magazine regarding my work on nature play. The degree gave me much more confidence and underpinned my knowledge which has helped me get to where I am now.

"A new chapter in my life commenced. I was officially an undergraduate!"
"It was daunting at first, of course, but it didn't take long to feel at home. I felt my knowledge and confidence increase as the months moved swiftly by. There were times when it was difficult to fit everything in and I briefly went into panic mode. But it's not unmanageable, everyone survives! I took a lot away with me from my time at New College; knowledge, skills, ambition and friends. As a small group we really supported each other and we all missed our weekly laughs when we didn't have to attend college. So of course, we're still in touch with each other.
But you know the best bit? Graduation Day! What a feeling! Standing there in my cap and gown, I felt on top of the world. What a reward for my hard work. I did decide to continue my studies as I still want to teach. So, I've enrolled at Bath Spa University for my third year. Reading the handbooks, the 'Can I do this?' question pops up again but I remind myself how I felt two years ago and how great I felt on that day in July. I know I'll be there again in July 2012 and I can't wait."

Porridge to Help You Get Out of Bed
Chilly mornings make me want to hit snooze and burrow deeper into my comforter. But the allure of a good breakfast can get me out from under. Porridge. I make it all year round, but during the colder seasons, I am particularly thankful to porridge.
This week, I made a black rice porridge. It received good reception on the Instagram, and a request from a friend for the recipe. Because we can all use a little morning motivation, the recipe is below. If you have a trusted porridge recipe, please do share with me in the comments. Good morning, and enjoy!

Sardines and Beans
Bean salads tend to be a weekly affair, and here is another one of my regulars: sardines and black-eyed peas salad. The recipe is here. The addition of celery adds crunch. The capers add tang. I have also previously substituted the sardines with tuna, anchovies, and canned herring, depending on what's available in the pantry.

My Chinese-Indian Southern Belle's Guide to Durham
Last Sunday was my sister Allison's birthday, aka Restaurant Baby #3. Happy belated birthday, my southern belle!
I call Allison a southern belle because if there is a place that best embodies her, it is probably the South. Though born and raised in the Midwest, Allison knows and shows southern hospitality like it's in her blood. Allison has a sweet-as-pie demeanor. She shows generosity to all whom she meets. She pulls off colorful floral prints very well. And she loves to cook and host, excelling at both… Sorry fellows, she's married to her high school sweetheart.

Food in the News: Food Waste, Channing Tatum, the Case Against "Ethnic Food", and more…
Did you know that pigs can beat three-year-old humans at video games? Or that despite their reputation as lethargic creatures, domestic pigs have an average 11mph running speed?
Did you know that up to 40 percent of the food produced in the US never gets eaten?
Reading can make a fool like me sound smart, no? This weekend I started reading Pig Tales by Barry Estabrook. So far it's entertaining me with fun pig facts, but beyond that, it's also nudging me to reflect on my own behavior as a bacon consumer.
Food has been in the news, and I wanted to share a few articles that have come to my attention recently. I figure if you visit Restaurant Baby, you probably enjoy reading about food. And who wouldn't? From the few articles below it's clear–food is personal, and political, and our relationship with it speaks volumes about who we are as individuals and a society.

An ABC discovers PB+B
I have not seen ABC's Fresh Off the Boat, but I have heard from fellow ABCs–American Born Chinese–that they find familiarity in Eddie Huang's childhood experiences. One scene shows Eddie navigating his school lunchroom. The cool kids invite Eddie to sit with them, but when he twists open his tupperware container revealing some kind of Asian noodles, the kids plug their noses and shriek, "What is that?"
Ah, the elementary school cafeteria–a place where poignant lessons are learned. Perhaps for many ABCs of my generation, it was a place where we learned that we are different, or at least that others will insist on our differences. We also learned that we cannot share or trade our favorite foods with our friends because cha siu bao looks bloody, and everything else we like is stinky.

Blueberry + Buttermilk Muffins
Blueberries were on sale for 99 cents a pint at my local grocery store. Next thing I know, I had hoarded more blueberries than I could eat. Meanwhile, I had some leftover week-old buttermilk in the fridge. Blueberry buttermilk muffins it is!

Originally two crazy kids making videos and making art found eachother on YouTube 8 years ago. HI! We're Jesse and Kane. We both had dreadlocks, and had an immediate bond finding one another, hilarious right? But how crazy is it, that a jeweler from Scotland, and a sfx makeup artist from America have been together for 3+1/2 and engaged for 2+ already?
Kane and I were friends for years on YT, and big fans of one another. I remember I was his 3rd subscriber... EVER! We both are artists, but through the years knowing one another, we fluctuated... I had a BF, he a GF... but more or less we became what you'd call virtual penpals... and now we're happily engaged, but still living 3,099 miles away from eachother.
We sent art to one another, and the recordings of it all and dedicating/showing our work off, we would post! Still to this day we have them posted to our channels. (I really hope YT never goes away cuz I want my grandkids to see this stuff!) www.youtube.com/elkano, www.youtube.com/jhermbaby -
5 years flew by and in 2010 Kane lost his dad to cancer. I noticed he wasn't posting and I asked him to come back. He did :) and painted a portrait of and for me, completely tongue tied and nervous talking to "me" filming himself. Truly something to see. A grown man tongue tied and in love with the girl he painted it for. It was the best gift I'd received in a while, and we still can share those moments because of the internet, and YouTube... our fans that have helped make it possible bc you support us and our story.................. aaaaand let's not forget ... our dreadlocks.
Our memories, our love story.... our current living situation.. is virtual. :/ All documented through our video stories. Many of you have supported us for years now. You know the story, for those of you who are reading now... we have an ACTUAL timeline that one's welcome to watch again and again, you may have, or maybe you haven't, but if so you'd see a beautifully tragic love story/movie unfold. And the kind that you always wish to see end with two people who care so much about one another, finally getting their wish.
I just wish I had enough to be in the same hemisphere as the man I love. - Thanks for reading, and any help by donating, is so kind and we thank you in advance. All donated is money well spent as Kane and I are a couple for a lifetime. An investment in a neverending love story is what you'll be doing. Be it $5, $10 or go cray with $50!!! NO MATTER what.. it's showing us you believe in us and are investing in us as a couple. I want to thank all who have donated. Share with your friends and make our story be known.
When it's true love, everyone knows it because it brings you to life. He makes me want to be a better person!
If you don't know it.. watch how Kane proposed after 8 months of dating on our 8 month anniversary, 5 months of which we spent online. No physical. Eliminating the physical made it more taunting to hear and see and imagine and explore using sight and sound only.
This was and is still a relationship relying on modern technology to provide us with the visual and audio, but mainly with honesty, trust and the most important: communication. That's the secret... don't keep anything from the person making up the other half of your heart. It'll all come out anyways if you both really do share one. Some valve acting like a jerk will leak it into your partners, causing a coronary that won't end well. If it does, it takes time to reestablish a trustworthy connection... or some good surgery
Wow, that was not wrapping it up.. I get carried away. If you read the whole thing, I applaud you for falling down that rabbit hole. Here it goes... I wish that we make this goal, and soon!
Thanks guys! - JHERMBABY (Jesse) & ELKANO (Kane)

I tried to change one party of 4 to a different date. Told the cost was approx. 15% higher than the original value!!! It was only a one way change. I then asked to change it to another person - simply NO Due to my working hours I tried to deal with tis via email - NO RESPONSE. So I called and must have been fortunate enough to speak with the worst customer service individual in history. I rated the service 1 star, because there is no zero or minus rating available.
