Coastal Whispers (Book) - 2/29/2004 7:13:34 AM
The author states that this book of poetry ‘has something for everyone’ and after reading it, I would agree. The poems in this book embrace a myriad of topics from faith in God, to nature, to friendship and love, to life’s tragedies, heartaches, and triumphs. I especially liked the poems reflecting what the author sees and feels near the ocean.
I am happy to recommend Coastal Whispers to anyone who enjoys poetry written from one’s heart and soul.

The Thin Line Between North and South (Short Story) - 7/7/2008 4:57:42 PM
Jill, I can wholly sympathize with your initial confusion. I moved from St. Louis, Mo. to Nashville, Tn when I was seven. I had a hard time understanding my teacher so my grades went down. But I've lived in the south ever since and love it: the weather, the friendly grace with which (many) people treat others, and the beauty of its beach and mountains. Thanks for giving me cause to think about it!

Resurrecting Love at Easter: Is It a Good Idea? (Article) - 3/21/2008 11:02:44 AM

Relationship Obituaries: A New Way to Move Forward? (Article) - 3/1/2008 6:39:22 AM
There has actually been a wall online for as many years as I've been out here so I don't know when it started but it was put up for abuse survivors to write/send letters meant for their abusers. Though the abusers will most likely never see them, the healing for the others who come to read and then write their own is amazing.
A lot of healing in just seeing that others felt the same way and that voicing those feelings didn't send bolts of lighting down to kill them in their place as many who were abused where told that horror would be bestowed on them and their family.
So I have no doubt that it would work in any other area. Just because we feel something doesn't mean that those first feelings are what we carry the rest of our lives, they are only the beginnings of the defensive part of us that helps us through the first hurts. Lady J
Relationship Obituaries: A New Way to Move Forward? (Article) - 2/29/2008 9:07:25 PM
Jill,
When my mother died (nearly 18 years ago), I was angry: bitter because she was too young (I thought) to die (59 years old). Didn't cry for six months. Was watching an Oprah Winfrey program, the guest speaker said to write a letter to your dead loved one - I'm like, "WHAT???? They're never going to read it." The woman (can't remember her name) said that you could say anything - ANYTHING - expressing sadness, anger, happy memories, whatever - thought about it - started a letter and it wound up being 12 pages in length - I cried for three days straight - sometimes writing is the way to release your emotions, to let go - to heal. I know my poetry has been a lifesaver - keep writing, okay? Excellent, thought provoking write -
(((HUGS))), love and prayer, Karla.
Relationship Obituaries: A New Way to Move Forward? (Article) - 2/29/2008 4:12:35 PM
Yes Jill, I have to agree about writiing being one of the most powerful tools in self healing the pain of heartaches and breakups. We do not need to be bitter and angry but we can express our pain and sadness and that goes a long way to help the healing process so we can move forward in our lives again.

Why Do We Want to be Famous? (Article) - 6/25/2007 4:25:30 PM
Interesting insight. Most people long for more excitement in their otherwise boring existance of deadly routine. They see celebs as living better. Many people feel that more money will make them happier. They see celebs as having more money and getting it without working hard.
I am an existentialist. The only way that I will exist in the minds of those who follow is to be famous. If the words to just one of my poems is remembered like, "[A]nd I took the one less traveled by", a thousand years from now, then I will be famous.
That's why I want to be famous.

What About the True American Idols? (Article) - 5/20/2007 11:49:13 AM

The true 'idols' of the world are not singers!

Reading about an empty box, while mine is on the verge of exploding. Yet the feeling of emptiness that you describe here is probably the result of an explosion...

Wow, very moving write. I think there are days when we all feel like an empty box, like a musical box that upon opening the lid, no music plays, just silence, wondering, what happened to the music of life.
I feel encouraged however by the line at the end about trying you must to stay sane and "oh I shall" and know you will too.

Empty Box (Poetry) - 3/30/2016 7:03:55 AM
Let me caution everyone reading this that, based on your recent correspondence, life is quite good for you right now.
However, your poem, whether or not it may or may not be personal, is highly emotional and describes what can happen when our lives are turned over by events we couldn't foresee. I will just add that life struggles tend to make us stronger, and sometimes, happier, in the end.

An insightful piece of poetry that everyone at some point in life can relate too. I believe I have one of your books as to me you are the Poet Laureate of the den.
Life As I Now Know It (Poetry) - 10/11/2014 5:05:22 AM
Wisely stated. Jill. The "you" that your poem is directed to could be justice, providence, the source of all things, the "good," a divine entity, or god. And that is about as much as our rational and emotional makeup can help us. But that's enough.
Romantic Ocean Sunset (Poetry) - 9/12/2014 4:42:05 PM

For Susan Bachman – Missing from Pennsylvania (Poetry) - 8/17/2014 10:39:16 AM
It's good seeing your poetry again. This is a tough case. As you and I know, we live too far from I-80 to make much of a difference in searching ourselves. However, your plea will reach your entire network and that will mean many more people looking in many more places.
If she is delusional, it's hard to believe that she can survive on her own for so long, unless she has periods when she is functional and can fend for herself.

For My Dearest Aunt (Poetry) - 12/4/2013 2:31:36 PM
I had seen this before, but it wasn't until recently that it tugs at my heart. This describes my late Aunt Rose to a tee, but I never told her that, and 3 weeks I got a call that she had passed away, I couldn't believe it. This is beautiful and a reminder to tell those we love how much we care while they're still here to hear it.

Her Courage (Poetry) - 8/22/2013 2:55:55 PM
The poet here sees so much. Seeing something in her beautiful and lovely as she battles her old inner scripts. That to all the world her denial makes everything seem fine, however, she knows her true paradigm, her true nature and by never giving up, backing down and keeping her belief, little by little she begins to change her lifestyle, living her new dream, new life and never forgets who she is, having others seek her out for her wisdom.
Her Courage (Poetry) - 8/22/2013 1:11:41 PM
You have really captured what this is all about!
There are so many people in this world that feels exactly this way!
Amazing job, Jill!

Bravest of the Brave (Poetry) - 6/1/2013 10:05:06 AM
I do feel badly for their families who have to bear the cost more than they for what has happened. Firefighting is a dangerous occupation and those that enter it are well aware of the danger. I don't see any part that religion or god plays in any accident that befalls firefighters. As to whether they are courageous or beloved by god, I don't know. We tend to call them servants, but if they are paid, full-time in the occupation of firefighting, they are just workers like all the rest of us who work for organizations. Volunteer firefighters are truly servants to the community.
When people are helpless to explain what happened, they turn to inspiring responses like your poetry to weather their grief. I hope it helps.

Our Hearts Are Hurting for Boston (Poetry) - 4/16/2013 11:46:49 AM
Well said. As I stand back and look at the whole situation, I realized that anyone up to no good can easily kill a lot of people because we have the freedom to buy whatever means of destruction we want, build it, and place it where we want.
Until we can get into the minds of people and correct frustration, loneliness, and despair, we will be unable to control those who can't control themselves. Background checks will help, but we must begin to deal with all the mental illness out there that plagues us, whether it be suicide or homicide, it comes much too often for anyone.
Ron
Our Hearts Are Hurting for Boston (Poetry) - 4/16/2013 4:58:57 AM

Jill, although death can be a sad thing, you have made it pointly okay to be dead in this poem. If that makes any sense. I am sure those who loved Cowboy James were not comforted so easily, but I find the thought of this journey told in such a positive and rythmic way very heartening. This was a treat to read. Be well, Kathy
