    Have you heard Him? Sometimes I wish He would take the thunder approach -- might make it easier on those of us who are sometimes a bit spiritually deaf!! (That'd be me.) I usually find Him in the scriptures and in prayer. I know that's a pretty traditional place, but I figure it's standard because it's worked for so long.
    Keep your heart open, and blessings, Deb

I think your author's notes are marvelous as well as the poem. As a child, I always wondered when God would talk to me. I truly expected to be able to hear him. Your wrote the quizzical part wonderfully. Thanks for sharing.

You get six stars for this one, Deb. I can see this poem in a picture book for children. It is written extremely well and portays perfectly a child's desire to hear God, and exactly the right counsel from mommy. I wish I wrote this one. Great job! Dusty

    Dusty, your review was so touching. Thank you. I've been writing other people's copy for so long that I was afraid I'd stopped hearing, myself. Be blessed, and know you were a wonderful encouragement. Deb

Deb, this is wonderful (please check your dictionary for the spelling of desert... I am not sure myself)
What a marvellous lesson for children. I love it. Pat.

    Thank you Pat. A hot dry place (desert) is one 's', a wonderful sweet dish after dinner is 2 's's'. (How do you notate 2 s's?) I had a teacher tell me once that we can remember because we'd always rather have more desserts (more s's) than deserts. I know I would!
    Thanks agian. It came together so quickly, and I've been so, so busy with freelance stuff for money, that I wasn't sure I wasn't just WANTING it to be good. It's wonderful to create instead of just write for cash. I don't think I knew what I was getting into!

    Blessings, Deb

    Don't know about that, but these projects are certainly making my HEAD go around!!! :) Too much in too short a period of time. I guess I didn't think I'd get all the bids that I did. I was almost glad to lose a job last night, although I would have loved the work. Just don't know when I would've done it! :) D

    Just try to remember that DEB is in there, somewhere... Deb has family and friends... Don't fit your blinkers on too tightly or you will neglect a large part of what makes YOU the person you are! Don't answer this, you're too busy. Pat. xxx
