  • Hi Joe, Yes, I'm enjoying your sonnets very much. In fact you've inspired me to work on one for our family newsletter, for our much belated Christmas/New Year letters...but so far it's just a jumble of notes and scratch-outs.
    Blessings, Linda
    p.s. I can be very sympathetic to your niece, because I'm on the tail end of a course of antibiotics now for conjunctivitis last weekend. All better now, thank the Lord!
    Thank you! I think I might try to write my first Narnia fan
    fiction this summer. It's going to have Diggory Kurke and
    Polly Plummer in it (they are my favorite of all the Narnia children). It's going to take place right when the White Witch invades Narnia after the 1000 years of peace.
    maybe, I still gotta sort everything in my head first. I kinda hoped that Erin would get more established with the main characters first.
    I love Monopoly. I always lose but I love it! I want your
    opinion on a Narnia piece that I wrote. Here it is.

    "As the Song was sung, life awakened ready
    to live and breath. The sun rose to shine its
    warmth, the flowers sprung forth to show their
    color, and the crickets played their lullaby to
    draw all who listened into their night time sleep.
    All of these things I created so that their
    purpose would be fulfilled and My Will would be
    done. But Son of Adam, you were here when I
    sang the Song of Spring and saw all that was
    created. Then in all things with a purpose, Son
    of Adam, why did I create the stars?

    Diggory stood there speechless. Nothing seemed
    possible and everything felt hopeless. He watched
    as the snowflakes fell all around him with tears in
    eyes. He didn't have the courage to look at Aslan;
    not into those eyes. It felt as if winter had come
    not just to Narnia but into his heart as well.

    At last Diggory forced himself to look at Aslan
    meeting great resistance within himself. What he
    saw surprised him for he saw the eyes that were
    not so different from the ones on his first trip to
    Narnia. Aslan's eyes were filled with tears but His
    face was solemn and majestic as it always was with
    expression of hope on it. Aslan looked up at the
    cloudy sky and gave a low growl that sounded like
    the wind. The clouds parted slightly showing
    a blank night sky. Aslan then lowered his head
    looking at the ground for several seconds. Diggory
    looked at the lion with a look of bewilderment and
    curiosity. He had never seen Aslan behave so
    disheartened this way before. The great lion raised
    His head, shook His mane, and looked up once
    again. Diggory turned to look at sky again, and what
    he saw amazed him. The once unoccupied space
    now had the most brilliant star Diggory had ever
    seen shining in its place. Diggory looked at Aslan
    with amazement and saw that His eyes were
    no longer filled with sorrowful tears but glistened
    with strength and hope.

    "I created the stars, Child of Mine, to show that
    Morning would come again."
