WITSEC Clint knocked on the sheriffs door. As he walked through the door, Bradley was hot on his heels. Dillon looked concerned for a moment. “Gentlemen.” Bradley almost slammed the door but thought better of it. “What’s goin’ on?” Dillon looked back and forth between the 2 men. “Well,”Continue reading “Sunshine Valley”

The River, a fox and a well
I went out into the world, my fortunes ah to seek. I followed the road till my feet did shriek. Beatin’ the pavement took on new meaning, my soul it left careening. The road led to a river. It I followed. Praying my fortunes, it would deliver. For drink or food, I never wanted. MyContinue reading “The River, a fox and a well”

Pick that bone Evie called as Dillon opened the door, “kitchen.” He kissed her, “delicious.” “How was your day?” He laid a manilla envelope on the table. “Paperwork for your lawyer.” “Thank you. Your attorney should get an e-mail from mine.” She turned, pointing aContinue reading “Sunshine Valley”
Gray
Gray, inside and out. Gray, the color of sorrow. Gray, without a doubt. ~ I wrote this as a response to one of Michael’s poems. Butt can’t remember which one.   https://sceadugenga.com/2025/02/12/one-rune-12feb25/

Rollin’ that apple “Dad!” Evie called as she walked through the door, grocery bags in hand. She went to the kitchen and started fixin’ breakfast. “Mornin’ humming bird,” Jack kissed her on the cheek before refillin’ his coffee cup. “That boy joinin’ us?” She smiled, “not this mornin’.” Continue reading “Sunshine Valley”
Post Malone Oreo’s
This is the second new product I’ve tried in as many months; for the woman that doesn’t try new things. There are 2 reasons I don’t buy new products: if I buy at and don’t like it, I’ve wasted my money. There goes my frugal living badge. And, leave the original alone. It’s original forContinue reading “Post Malone Oreo’s”

The little area he moved to was closer to town and people. Widow Blake was one of his neighbors. There was a little parkContinue reading “Sunshine Valley”
The fight
Fought, clawing my way into the light. Fought to be introduced to the night. Fought to fill my lungs with their first air. Fought, screaming at things that weren’t there. Fought for my place. Fought for space. Fought to learn. Fought to earn. Fought for life, love, and the pursuit of happiness. Fought back theContinue reading “The fight”

Business After church on Wednesday night, once a month, church members that wanted too could stay after service for a business meeting. Rebecca poured over a copy of the bank statement. There was a deposit of $6,545.00. Rebecca broke the silence, “Pastor, what’s this $6,000.00 deposit for?” “IContinue reading “Sunshine Valley”
Last night
Last night, as I lay in the bed lots of crazy notions filled my head. ~ I cried. And I cried. Into Chico’s fur, I tried to hide. ~ I considered e-mailing a friend. Into his in-box, my soul, spin. ~ More torment filled my mind. Making my vision blind. ~ ‘Nothing good is easy.’Continue reading “Last night”
