Book Description
To introduce you to my book you will find a variety of poems that will touch your heart in so many ways. My poetry tells of how as a child I was taught love that has followed and helped me throughout my lifetime. I have written many poems for our service men and women to show my appreciation and support for all they have done for us here at home. Those boys and girls are truly my heroes. In my book they can do no wrong. I have stories of situations in life from children and teens and adults and the trials and errors we all encounter throughout our life. When you read my work there will be times you will feel this love I was given in my life and how in my work I pass it on for others to feel and know its there for the ones who want to share it with me. Come into my world and within each page know the joy of reading my story form poetry that will place you within the story. Here is a sample of one of my poems that is within my book it is called -- A SOLDIERS PRAYER She cries silver tears the day he leaves, knowing her little man knows what it takes to be free. She waits with prayers whispered on the wind, for a mothers prayers never end. Within the spring showers there is a rainbow arc, she sees her little man from within her heart. With outstretched arms to the man above, whispers God let a mothers prayers be enough. For a mothers love is a love divine, as she shared her soul within this life. Raised a man to stand up for the free, and face what he doesn't want us to ever see. With open arms God hold them there, for he is there he can see and hear. Young men trying to save the innocent ones, ones who are searching for peace just as our son. Gods glory can be seen upon the air, he works with our men for he is so aware. He floats among them as his wings are lifted high, from prayers from their mothers you and I. Then at battles end and there comes mornings light, those left standing looks through Gods eyes. They see all who were so brave till the end, and within a whisper they hear Amen.

Book Description
Following on from the hugely popular Treasury of Folklore: Seas and Rivers and Woodlands and Forests comes Treasury of Folklore: Stars and Skies, an exploration of the mysteries of the stars, skies and heavens above. People have gazed up at the same stars for millennia, trading stories about them; conjuring gods and goddesses; mapping the constellations; and navigating the complex human world below. The tales, traditions and myths included here traverse countries and continents and have been chosen to highlight how humans are linked through time and place, with shared dreams, fears and ways of rationalising the unknown. Under 'Stars and Heavens' Willow delves into rosy fingered dawn and the hubris of Icarus, the Greek myths surrounding the constellations and the omen of meteors, the trials of the Hawaiian goddess Hina and the legend of the rabbit in the moon. In the section on 'Skies' we are introduced to winged Pegasus and the Firebird, the Witch of Westray and stories of storms, the mysteries of the Northern Lights and unexplained UFOs. Treasury of Folklore: Stars and Skies is a fascinating portal into a rich history of myths surrounding the sky, an aspect of the natural world that continues to fascinate and confound.

Book Description
Part American road trip, part coming-of-age adventure, and part uncommon love story—a remarkable memoir that explores the evolution of the human-animal relationship, along with the raw beauty of a life lived outdoors. Melissa Chapman was 23 years old and part of a happy, loving family. She had a decent job, a boyfriend she cared about, and friends she enjoyed. Yet she said goodbye to all of it. Carrying a puppy named Gypsy, she climbed aboard a horse and rode away from everything, heading west. With no cell phone, no GPS, no support team or truck following with supplies, Chapman quickly learned that the reality of a cross-country horseback journey was quite different from the fantasy. Her solo adventure would immediately test her mental, physical, and emotional resources as she and her four-legged companions were forced to adapt to the dangers and loneliness of a trek that would span over 2,600 miles, beginning in New York State and reaching its end on the other side of the country, in California. Enchanted by the freedom a nomadic life seemed to promise, the young woman would soon find herself only more deeply connected…to the animals that accompanied her, to the varying and challenging landscapes through which she traveled, and to the people she met on the farms and back roads that crisscross the United States. Chapman's vigilance in detailing the quietest moments of heroism and beauty, as well as the startling and tragic, yields a read that convinces one of both the magnificence of the countryside and the generosity of the people who call it home. A book for the equestrian, the animal lover, and the outdoor enthusiast—or anyone who dreams about one day bringing a longed-for adventure to life.
