| NATURE'S OASIS by Debra Kawaguchi |
|||||||||||||||||||
| We all need a place to hide away, and mine is a little plot of trees in my back yard. I've made the place perfect for my liking, and so it is a place I visit often, even in my stories. Inside a shroud of trees, a tiny creek tumbles over several rocks. Wonderfully scented flowers of all kinds line the shore. The trees are native to Indiana, such as oaks, apple trees, an evergreen here or there, and several willows beside the creek. I enjoy sitting by the creek and listening to the water go down into the small pond just outside the trees. When I think about that place, I can feel the morning sun filtering through the trees. I can feel the fresh breeze flow over me as the scent of flowers waft to me, and the sound of crystal clear water tumbling down a small creek calls to me. This nature's oasis is the perfect place to hide from the stress of every day life. I can only wish it were real. |

| FINDING PEACE We can't drive away clouds to stop a storm, and we can't drive away tears to stop our pain. I will always miss Debbie, but I will always be grateful for the time I had with her. Some people live their whole lives never knowing someone so delightful. She left this world searching for something better. I believe she has found it. |
