Poetry Time

Poetry Time This monthly series began more than a decade ago in an effort to encourage the joys of poetry. Here we celebrate other poet's work, as well as our own. If you would like to submit, simply visit the  ABOUT  page for guidelines & contact information. FEBRUARY'S SILENT EMBRACE The waves softly touching desert-like sands... The sea gulls making known their demands... The wind whispering through budded leaves... The water rises as the snow grieves... Familiar birds fly back home, To ready their nests for the unborn. Colours change from grey to green... As the rain washes earth's face clean. The stars shine brighter than before... As the do the eyes of those who adore, The glorious feelings from this wonderful place; Brought by the tides  of February's silent embrace.  Find the Series:  (US)  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YMCRVZ3 (Canada)  https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B09YMCRVZ3 ~~~     Follow us & find our Books:   on Amaz...

A Word From The Authors

A Word From The Authors © Brummet Media Group Several years ago I was a guest on the Transparency Talks Podcast but recently I was inspired to listen to it again.  This particular quote during our conversation about working with the media (below) struck me as being of interest to you as well.  If you would like to access the full  Transparency Talks Podcast interview,   click on the link below.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIeCwpnK8WQ   "When i'm approaching the members of the media I offer more than I'm asking for. I always promote every single media event, in every aspect, in every way that I could possibly do, & I do this multiple times -  like even years later , I'll go back to listen to the interview, find a worthy quote and share it again:  'Oh I'm just looking back at this interview and this inspired me, or 'I was remembering this about the discussion.'  In fact, I just did some of these over on my Socials the other day. I ten...

Love book reviewers !

    Did you know that Dave is also an author ?  Find this book at:  https://www.amazon.ca/Down-Road-Collection-Dave-Brummet-ebook/dp/B0DYS8DVS9 His family memoir recently received this amazing review: “Lillian and Dave - your  Down the Road  feels like a time capsule cracked open with heartbeats still echoing inside.  Four generations, wars, migrations, love, grit you didn’t just write a memoir; you stitched a quilt out of history’s forgotten whispers.  The kind of book that smells like old photographs and coffee-stained letters. You two have done it all from talk radio to blogging to drumming up (literally) inspiration and somehow your story still deserves louder applause.”  ~ M.
