  The oaks and elms are on their way

  they left one bright and sunny day

  no message scribbled on the ground

  just shards of bark was all we found

  come back to us oh lovely trees

  but off they went to see the bees

  "Writing . . . is a lonely life."

  "writing, at its best, is a lonely life.

  organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness but i doubt if they improve his writing.

  he grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates.

  Writing is like singing to me I'm not very good at either one but I enjoy the fun of it. When you use music, singing or maybe art to plunge into the depts of your soul it takes on a whole different dimension. I use those things as a distraction away from deep thought when I need a break from my natural state.

  Speaking of distractions we've been watching a new bbc Sherlock Holmes series it's interesting to me to watch Sherlock grow younger as I grow older. My first Sherlock was Basil Rathbone and I was a little girl now he's a young man Benedict Cumberbatch and me well the beatles wrote a song about that age Will you still need me will you stlll feed me when I'm...

  As Ben sat in his favorite old chair scratching his grizzled beard he snarled at Danny the neighbor kid who zipped by on his skateboard. It seemed like only yesterday He was riding along on his new shinny blue 3 speed schwinn bike showing off for Mary. Oh Mary that beautiful high school cheerleader with the long red curly hair the sweetheart of Maple Way. The bike was a christmas present From aunt Jean his mother's older sister who gave everyone the best that money could buy, so she was his favorite. As he watched Danny head down the street he wished for a minute that he could change the past and instead of a cynical old bachelor sitting on his porch on a warm afternoon dreaming the impossible dream he could be living his dream. His life a series of missed opportunities and bad decisions and now nothing but dreams. As he began to doze off he was startled by a loud hissing sound as a meteorite crashed into his front yard and Ben's life changed in a blinding flash.
