Life on the Rock

Book Cover & Preview Text
Life on the Rock Samples Right Here Right here is one of my favourite places, Surrounded by green, shady palms and lush heliconias, The constant dribble of numerous fountains, Calms me, stills my wandering mind. I come here alone and sit, And though sometimes lonely in a crowd, I am never in solitude here. I feel a presence, surely God’s, In the whispering leaves, And wish I could stay forever In Canella Court. By Leonie Phoenix Am I too late for Halloween? Am I too late for Halloween? This grew on my tree, have you seen?" "That's certainly not a pumpkin! I thought you were a country bumpkin. You fool, it's a papaya, They grow somewhat higher Than a pumpkin on the ground." She didn't make another sound, But proceeded to make incisions With incredible precision, All around the fruit I'd grown, From the seed that I had sewn. It tasted lovely, sweet and fit, Alas, she ate up every bit. By Leonie Phoenix
