  Want a laugh out loud series that will make you write love songs? Can you write a love song about unrequited love?   Verse 1: I've been watching you from afar, Hoping that you'll see me, But my feelings are unrequited, And my heart is filled with agony.   Chorus: Oh, unrequited love, A feeling that's hard to bear, I wish that you could see, The love that's burning in my stare.   Verse 2: I've tried to hide my feelings deep, But they keep on shining through, I know that I'm not the one, But I can't help falling for you.   Chorus: Oh, unrequited love, A feeling that's hard to bear, I wish that you could see, The love that's burning in my stare.   Bridge: I know that I must move on, But it's hard to let you go, I'll always treasure the memories, Of the love that I'll never know.   Chorus: Oh, unrequited love, A feeling that's hard to bear, I wish that you could see, ...

A Christmas Poem for You

 A Christmas Poem for You The winter air is crisp and cold, The trees are bare and stark, But in the hearts of young and old A spark of hope does kindle.   For Christmas time is here again, A time of love and joy, A time to give and to receive, A time to make a new start.   The streets are lined with twinkling lights, The houses decked with holly, The carolers sing through the night, Their voices sweet and jolly.   The children's eyes are bright with glee, As they hang their stockings with care, For they know that Santa will soon be here, With presents for them to share.   The adults, too, are filled with cheer, As they gather round the tree, To exchange gifts and love and cheer, With family and friends, so dear.   But Christmas is not just about the gifts, It's about the love that's in our hearts, It's about the joy that it brings, To all the people, near and far.   So let us celebrate this j...

  It’s too much, she said.   Normally I hear that after a date.   In bed.   Just kidding.   I’m more used to, is that it?   And the slap that follows the answer.   Which is he or she who finishes first is the winner!   I didn’t make the rules of racing.   I just live them.   But she was not talking about racing.   Or dating.   She was referring to the vast number of promotional giveaways I send out.   It’s a lot, she said.   And even if I refrained from the familiar dive into the gutter, at least you know I’m thinking it.   Yes, it is a lot.   I’m a giver.   Plus, you never know what you’re going to find.   Sometimes, you have to sift through a lot of chatter to find that golden nugget that lets you know you’ve struck the motherlode.   By that I mean eighteen books of awesome.   Like Kyla Stone.   I ate u...
