Excerpt from The Moonsparrow Collection
Mark U.
Rye
This does not have any dragons or
sword and sorcery, as a matter of fact it is more of a tall tale, but I
think you just might recognize the main character, even if he is in
disguise..... his name is the clue....
His name was Mark Rye, well actually, he would introduce
himself far more formally then his deeply creased jeans would have
suggested. Mark U. Rye, he would grin, with a grin that sticks to you
like warm oatmeal swallowed on an extra cold day. The U. was for Ulysses,
a name he was extremely proud of and never did he have the hesitation that some
folks have about their middle, and somewhat old fashioned names.
Mark called himself a communicator, although his busted old
guitar hardly seemed to command that sort of respectability, at least not at
first sight. But oh, that boy could make it sing with nine tongues and
all of them golden!
A Beltane Tale
However, if she
were really truthful with herself, she knew this was about more than
just singing with him. His voice enchanted
her, the simplicity of him singing in the woods, pouring his heart out with each word, set up a
longing in her for more than just singing with him. That was the true reason
she had not approached him.
This Beltane gathering conjured up all kinds of ideas in her head. She knew Beltane was a time of romance, fertility and new beginnings and that many a relationship had it's not so humble beginnings at this time of year. She was just not quite ready for all the feelings this gathering had conjured up in her. She simply was not quite ready yet, at least that's what she told herself.
Truck Stop Virgin
Brandy was quite a looker, the nearest thing to a sin in an unmarried woman, at least the women think so. Men are a bit more forgiving about that particular fault. Even so, everyone could tell just by looking at Brandy that this gal was trouble!
