Ridgerunners

About the Book

The dirt roads ascend into a state of being crossed from one emotion to another in awareness of the surroundings enveloped with limits and ideas twisted with characters written from no where. Time leans toward a shadow left for an opposite side of a coin tossed away without the understanding that is shaped through a wrong turn. The sun sets in a pass between logic and reason. Hidden are the innocent intensions of a rider without a ride and a promise of a rainbow that never arced a dim hope for the few ready to be somewhere else. Follow the journey of many hills, curves and surprises of beauty and secrets sliding down a path of plenty. Remember the messages aimed for the ones who have a place to forget. Back up a thought buried along the rhymes taken from the will of a reader rapidly running amok. Searching for a smile seems to sooth a rough attempt to make the rest up ahead stop before the dead end opens. Enjoy enough space given to reach the best in us all and save a place for a special moment to reflect an experience no one ever had.

About the Author

I have been writing words, phrases, and rhymes for thirty years throughout my working class niche. I enjoy art, music, and culture as I experience life in simple terms. Expressions through poetry abstract the reflections of feelings and emotions, which guide my journey and support my understanding of the changes so many face. Born in Chicago, my family moved to the heart of Dixie, and I adopted the independence country life brings. I witnessed the chivelry, honesty, and hospitality southerners embrace so passionately. Disgarding stereotypes and believing in the triumphs and hardships family, friends, and neighbors struggle with, I am a part of this adventure on the dirt roads, where the crows meet the dawn and a smile greets with love, suspicion and good sense of humor.
