Excellent, MM! I know just the feeling of the "dreamers." In my bowhunting days, I came across several places just like the description, old cabins left by trappers, miners, and homesteaders. Once, I found the remains of an old Henry "Yellow Boy" (a 44-40 lever gun with a brass frame that was the precursor to the Winchester '73) grown into a fork of a cottonwood tree. I've always wondered how it got there and what its story was.

I really like the book description, too. I just might have to order it. Your review on Amazon was excellent.

”This may mean nothing except to the people who were there.”

Yee haw. You took me there. Thanks

This is one I put together at the end of my treatment on 'Human Nobility', which can be viewed here:

A Soul’s Renewal

Hope a haunting pest
Vision mingles lurking past
Flickering yond horizons of will
E’er hazy aim m' resolve instill

Course befalls dream at fading glance
Abandon collides wi’ pursuit of chance
Endeavor anew while in reprieve
Mortal stress ‘twill relieve

Where slender streams illumine brinks
Lovely fire storms blissful links
Sparks of fond recollection
Establish desire’s most singular perfection.
