OLYMPIC WILDERNESS
Rain forest awash with fog and rain.
Emerald mosses clinging to aged trees.
I walk on verdant ground
Soaked to my inner soul.
Ocean air saturating wild beaches.
Surf fed tide pools filled with life.
Eagles soaring to their nests
High among pine filled .
Sun etching glacier crowned peaks.
Flower laden alpine meadows.
Snow filled streams cascading downward.
Spawning salmon swimming deep.
Master laid best of plans
Not touched by human hands.
Mythology of the Olympics
Standing quiescent and undisturbed.

Poetry: Just a memory
I hear your footsteps as you walk
You take a deep breath of the chill air
I can already see the smile on your lips
As you
by Sharon Fulps
Just A Memory
I lift your favorite sweater to my nose stuffed up from crying
The smell of your cologne is what I'm
At five, she runs through the garden picking daisies for Mom.
By seventeen, she dresses in satin and lace for her senior
Your jacket no longer hangs by the door.
Your laughter is not in the air.
I don't feel your warmth beside me,
Or your lips
You used to be everything,
you were a part of my everyday life.
A quick hello before work,
and an array of messages throughout
