Welcome to the Midnite Garden! Often in the middle of the night
when everyone else is asleep I sit in the dark corner of a
dark, often smoky, room writing by the light of a small lamp.
Sometimes the perfect word or the perfect sentence escapes me.
Leaving me writhing with frustation and a hand full of hair.
It as at these times I visit the Midnite Garden in my
mind. It is a beautiful and peaceful spot with brick walks and
flower gardens. Ivy climbs a nearby wall and the iron benches
are cool to the touch until you take the time to sit down and
warm them. Sometimes I sit alone looking inward for some
inspiration. At other times I entertain guests which motivate
and teach me. The guest list has varied over my many visits.
On any one night you can expect to see such legends as Knute
Rockne, John Wayne, Bugsy Siegel or the incomparable Papa Hemingway.
Thus the name of my website. You are welcome to browse and
hopefully enjoy what you find within the stone walls of the
Midnite Garden. Take the time to breathe in the fresh air,
listen to the sounds of distant music, and
witness the incredible sight of "two suns in the sunset".
