Love Lover by Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill

When you tire of the pieces — Just toss them away. Then have a “cup of happiness” – Your choice of the day. Recall as you “sip” all the — Cups you have served. And know what your sipping — Is richly deserved. Love you, Gail. Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill Copyright Roy Richard

June by Katherine Carey-Place 1878-1934

June is a sort of paradise With blue dome over head And oleanders blooming near In pink and white and red The ocean nipping at your feet Sunshine that’s simply grand A cool breeze a blowing Across a silver strand There’s other months that’s nice, I guess Some folks just wait for spring Or early… Read More June by Katherine Carey-Place 1878-1934

House of Joy by Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill

A town on a mountain – That miners call home – This wee little boom town – Known as Jerome. On the side of a mountain – With road curling back – Just like a hairpin – And sharp as a tack. The buildings all seem – To be hanging on tight – To the… Read More House of Joy by Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill

The General Baptist Denomination in Flint Michigan

As you drive around Genesee County today there is no want for Cannabis businesses. Almost every street corner it seems has a store or grow facility. This was not the case when I was growing up. Flint during the 1950s to the 1980s was filled with Coney Islands, Banks and Churches. Churches were not only… Read More The General Baptist Denomination in Flint Michigan

Its Mothers Day by Katherine Carey-Place 1878-1934

It’s Mother’s Day, and out upon the breeze, I hear the chime of bells, While violets blue as heavenly skies, Are blooming in the dells, And happy children wend their way, Each with a flower bright, And aged sires and women gray, Are wearing flowers white, On Mother’s Day. On Mother’s Day, if still she’s… Read More Its Mothers Day by Katherine Carey-Place 1878-1934

Heartbreak by Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill

Somewhere, someday my heartbreak will mend, But will never, no never be what it has been, The aches and the hurts have compiled inside, And I have no more places to let heartache hide. So in breaking my heart, my spirit broke too, And I can no longer spend my strength upon you. It is… Read More Heartbreak by Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill

Alfred Cheney Johnston – Photographer

Alfred Cheney Johnston (April 8, 1885 – April 17, 1971) is one of my most favorite, if not my favorite photographer. My eye for art has always been drawn to the female figure and the graceful curves that God graced them with. Alfred was the photographer for the Ziegfeld Follies. The Follies were a presentations… Read More Alfred Cheney Johnston – Photographer

Mother by Katherine Carey-Place 1878-1934

We’re going to miss her when she’s gone, little mother, We’re going to miss the slender grace, the gentle eyes, the patient face. We’re going to see the empty pace, And wish that we had kept her. She’s just a little frailer than she was a year ago, She’s just a little paler, and her… Read More Mother by Katherine Carey-Place 1878-1934

Happy City by Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill

Dropping down from Flagstaff – Via Oak Creek Canyon Drive – Sharpens senses and emotions – For at last you see it live. Memories stored away from childhood – Of the mountains, oh so high – And the pines so very stately – Seem to stretch and reach the sky. Here and there the sparkling… Read More Happy City by Gaylia Kenslow – Stogsdill
