Carol Perkins: The Wind Beneath My Tree Previous Column: Get That Tip and Let'er Rip By Carol Perkins The sound of thunder cracked throughout the house except it wasn't thunder. It was the sound of a huge limb from the trunk of a pine tree falling across our front porch, landing on the roof and against the porch railings. The limb was the size of a tree itself. The only thing saving the front window was the porch. In the backyard, another tree fell to the ground like a feather. Guy had been wanting it gone. Mother Nature helped him get his wish. Behind us, a neighbor's large outbuilding landed in another neighbor's yard. Blown off the foundation. Winds at seventy miles an hour command respect.

Phillip Coffey - Bazooka Gum Post Bazooka Gum Post by Phillip Coffey Got much of my stored wisdom from reading messages of Bazooka Joe bubble gum enclosures inside. Walking to a one room school - sticking the paper within My right pocket. Respect for all the flora and fauna seen near Keltner-town Long before I could read very well. Took all of the sagacity of the leaflets in my mind to Sparksville Grade Center - leaving home long before daylight in the Wintertime. Moved to Adair County Freshman class on Frazier hill about 1967. Taking on a different route but never getting much further than Trigonometry in my Senior year. Still chewing on the same dried bubble gum removed each morning From my chilled bedroom host. 2023-03-04 07:25:30 | Comments | Printable version
