If you would like to submit, simply visit the  ABOUT  page for guidelines & contact information. CEMETERY AT NIGHT Did you ever stand, on a summer night, In a cemetery, in the cool moonlight? The mind begins to imagine things, You hear the flutter of angel wings, Was it the soft breeze blowing past, Or did a moan escape from the grass? Shifting clouds make shadows flow, They are the spirits of those below Who rest in peace for eternity, Never again to speak or see, Never again to feel that breeze Stirring the leaves on silent trees. On some stones pleasant epitaphs: Do not mourn, remember the laughs, Keep on smiling, don’t be sad, Cherish the happy times we had, He was a friend, we knew him well. And many a tale the stones can tell. A marble marker bearing two names, The date of demise for both the same, An icy ...

A Word From The Authors © Brummet Media Group A few years ago I was a guest on the Life Is A Classroom Podcast where we discussed the incredible gardens we created on our previous property.  R ecently I was inspired to listen to it again and thought this particular section would be of interest to you.  If you would like to access the full interview on  Life Is A Classroom Podcast    click the link below: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/grow-your-joy-with-gardening/id1570152396?i=1000597038841   “We have hazelnuts & filberts & a peach tree, we have raspberries & blackberries, & strawberries & blueberries & haskap berries and josta berries & wolf berries or goji berries they are sometimes called, rhubarb & asparagus… those are most of the perennials that we have but there are a few I'm sure I'll remember later.  We have a 8 raised beds for a vegetable garden. ...So when we moved to this property it was on a hill, so ...

© Brummet Media Group " There is a zone to writing.  It takes some effort, some hours of struggle to reach,  but once you're there,  the words flow as if from a spigot.  Thoughts fill up the page.  Your fingers function independently of your body and brain  as you tap out the poetry.  It's the groove that baseball hitters speak of.  The hot hand that basketball players relish.  It is that sweet moment in a race car  when everything slows down despite the speedometer reading 175 miles per hour.  Everything doable in life has a zone like this.  Find it and get into it.
