Each story and poem is short, but intended to reveal a variety of inner feelings by an author who enjoys people and would like to leave hopes and pursuits for them to consider. We need humor in our day-to-day living, but the time we live in does not reflect a renaissance, nor is there peaceful satisfaction. It is the author's belief that joy and contentment have taken a leave of absence because of political upheaval and too much knowledge and too fast streaming from electronic marvels. The writing within could be lighter in earlier times or in times yet to come. Fortunately, a leave of absence suggests that which is temporary. Ms. Burton is still very much the optimist, awaiting a flourishing of the good things that are yet to come.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e About the Author\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Myrtle M.
