Legacy’s Bliss
Margaret glanced up from a sink full of soapy dishes. Pa was in his element, surrounded by the grands and great-grands, telling stories of “how it was before tv’s and computers; when people called and you answered your phone, none of this texting and voicemail business.”
“How did you do it, Pa? Didn’t you wonder if you were missing something? I would!” Zachary blurted.
Pa chuckled, his eyes softened, remembering. “Well Zach, guess we didn’t miss anything ‘cause we didn’t know any better. We got along just fine, I think. Just look at all of you. Musta done something right.”

Essence #29
cooing dove, grey morning

Day 29’s Essence for Jane Dougherty’s Daily Essence Poem Challenge. You guessed it! Another dreary day in the mid-Atlantic, Blue Ridge Mountain valley. I love the sound of morning doves in the grey.
Essence #28
restless sleep, pale moonlight
no dreams to keep…long night

Essence #28 for Jane Dougherty’s Daily Essence Poem Challenge. When I can’t sleep, I wander outside to be with the moon and the stars and the lovely silence of the night while the rest of the world sleeps. It can make for a very long night, but sometimes…I write. 🙂
Essence #27
snow gets old, a bummer…
we’ll miss cold come summer
~kat
Day 27 for Jane Dougherty’s Daily Essence Poem Challenge. As much as I complain about the cold, I am well aware that once mid-summer arrives I will be begging for relief from the heat! We are never happy. 🙂
