I know this is true.



I Know This Is True
I know deep inside myself
the secret of the ages.
We do not die
or grow old.
Our house becomes decrepit,
falling into disrepair,
but the furnishings
are all antique.
Full of grace and beauty
they are desirable
for their age and quality.
If you look only
At the outside of the house,
perhaps you would not visit,
however, once you’ve stepped inside,
you find it a place
of ease and comfort.
You can enjoy a pleasant interlude
tossing views back and forth
in friendly opposition.
You gaze about with pleasure,
wishing you had come before
Knowing you’ll be back.
I know this is true.
We had our writers group this afternoon and discussed our work. what had to be done by whom. And of course I found out that I have to start my book over. I'm not really suprised. after going to the writers fair, and listening too the speaker and taking several of the sessions I knew it was inevitable. but I asked My friend Lee Shaw , author of 'Blood Will tell', to read what I have and she told me what she thought and it was what i expected so am satisfied and will begin soon. I am still waiting for the pictures for my childrens book 'The Angry Trees' to be finished so it can be published by April or May. I cannot wait.
The other authors in our group were so excited about my artist they all want to use him for their books. Preston has reserected a couple of his childrens story's and is prepairing them for the illustrator. we now call him OUR illustrator.His name is Benjamin Grandle and he is 9years old. he is going to be a real great artist and I cannot wait for my first chidrens book and his first illustrations to be published.
