“That was the trouble with explaining with words. If you explained with gunpowder, people listened.” -Dean F. Wilson.

 “The summer sun welcomes me out

to sandy beaches with palm trees.
I am lulled by caressing rays
as warm as heavy, denim quilts.
The heat melts away distresses
from my muscles, from my thinking.
Entranced and contented, I bask
in the careless arms of sunshine.”

― Richelle E. Goodrich, Being Bold: Quotes, Poetry, & Motivations for Every Day of the Year
