I remember a place not long ago,
Where the brisk wind blows from the north,
Where the wild goose glides like the silent snow,
And the frozen winter comes forth.

The cold that wraps around is a blanket,
Pulling you into the cold storm.
Where your feet sink slowly into the snow,
Drifting into the quiet warm.

You won’t remember me, as I have been gone
For a while from this beautiful part.
But I can recall all the sights and smells
That are unique and come from the heart.

These things I remember are all from my home,
Where the wild geese chase and roam

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;

&quot;Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.&quot; -Lord Alfred Tennyson
