Phillip Coffey - In the Midst 2022-10-11 . IN THE MIDST (To Mom) Seeing a lone rose in the distance, moistening, soothing the manic In the raging storm. Removing the top hat before entering, paying tribute to a close friend. Tossing the outer garment to those feeling no warmth in the chill In the midst of the grieving. While every day much ado is made about the insignificant - all seems lost. Others taking a stand for the freedoms of so many-sacrificial loss a - plenty. Over there are the simple smiles, chuckles of the innocence of children. Walking through all, protected by family members - breaking their fall. Tired and weathered still laughing, rejoicing though left with no family In her generation. Grip each day ever so gently, never tightly - releasing the joy of living to all.

Kentucky Color: Sour Gum 2022-10-10 - Great Wooded South - Photo by Billy Joe Fudge. Billy Joe writes, "Black Gum is its most popular common name, but in the Great Wooded South it was always known as Sour Gum. This one is standing right in the heart of the Great Wooded South at about 1090 feet above sea level. For some reference, the Adair County Courthouse is setting at 750 feet above sea level.
