An island paradise
Where rain kicks up dirt
Sand meets Evergreen
Sea crashes on shore in waves of emerald and grey
An island paradise
Where seagull calls pierce your heart
Mountains hold you in their arms of stone
Leaves and branches writhe their way around your soul
An island paradise
Where the forest is a church
Thunder is a hymn
Rain is worshipped upon an altar of earth
An island paradise
Where mists creep through green fields
The night sky drips with golden stars
The moon bleeds her pale light on black water
My island paradise
Where my heart lies buried beneath the damp soil
My soul tosses in the sapphire waves
My being is tethered by seaweed and vines
My island paradise. My home.

Cabin Fever Because of Snow, Sleet, and Freezing Rain That Turned to Icy Roads
What Is Cabin Fever? The short answer is that cabin fever is restlessness from being in a confined area. Cabin fever is the distressing irritability or restlessness experienced when a person or group is stuck at an isolated location or in confined quarters for an extended time. Research shows that prolonged cold, gray skies, and being stuck indoors can trigger mood shifts similar to “winter blues.”

A Love Forboding
The chipped stone slope caused unbearable footing. I slid, skirting on my heels. I cast my shield, relinquishing my guard to stay upright. Left with my double-edge and a prayer to the maker, I skated toward my objective. The earthly stubble gave way to solid ground. I found myself restored, a trail of dust in my wake.
