Lost inside a state of mental and physical exhaustion, I prayed to meet an angel on earth, then, I felt the pillow of a horses mouth gently sweep grass from the palm of my hand.

Words-
Words are the core of our souls, without written, vocal or lyrical expression we lose sight of one another or worse, ourselves. Words bring forth the essence of the human spirit; so express yourself without abandon.

Favorite Phrase
I remember I used to half believe and wholly play with fairies when I was a child. What heaven can be more real than to retain the spirit-world of childhood, tempered and balanced by knowledge and common-sense...

Jacket Flap-
The Storyteller, by Dawn Drover
Alone in her world of make believe weaving her stories of magic and light
She brings joy to the eyes of innocent minds less jaded and free
For only they know what's in her heart holding the secrets she guards so well
Life's hidden mysteries belong to those whose wisdom and truth shine on in imagination
Most of the worlds' great things were born of adversity and hardship; because these roadblocks encourage us to dream, imagine and believe.- Ann Clemmons
