Magical Day in February
Fluffy whites play in the sky
Of powder blue,
Defying the gray of winter
With its pleasant hue.
Surely an ugly mood can
Change to Hope,
Dispel for hours the woes
With which we cope.
Can such a Day void the
Voices of Doom?
Shatter dark oppressive shadows
Of gloom?
Allow miracles to alter the
Ways of Man?
Is it folly to think that such
Days fit a plan?
Of course, if bleak with snow
Where you live,
You may find my jaunty lines
Hard to forgive.
But I joyfully leave you with
These trite words
To walk the sunshine paths and
Feed the birds
(Billy Ray Chitwood – February 6, 2016)
Please look over my website at goo.gl/nWMXm3 – you can PREVIEW my thirteen books in various genres…mystery, suspense, thriller, romance, memoir, government. I’m of course biased but it’s my belief you will find some great quality reads.
My newest book, Stranger Abduction, just out late 2015, is inspired by an Arizona ‘Cold Case’ about a mother and daughter disappearance- the novel presents a fictional and/or alternate scenario for the case…would love to have you read the book and give an Amazon US, UK, and Goodreads REVIEW.
