The Book, The Burial, by R. Penman Smith is available through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and directly from Tate Publishing. The Burial is a Spiritual Thriller with a dark twist and a redemptive outcome. The story springs out personal experience; ‘write what you know about’. Those who are comfortable with fantasy and are not afraid of the reality of the spiritual warfare inherent in Christian life will love this book.

Imagination is the faculty through which we discover the world around us, both the world we see, and that other unseen world that hovers on the fringe of sight. Love, joy and laughter, poetry and prose, are the gifts through which we approach that complex world. Through the gift of imagination we have stepped into an ever flowing river where the realm of Faerie touches Middle Earth.

Autumn Winds

When autumn winds come knocking at my door
They carry with them crispness in the air,
And all the beauty of the leaves so fair
Tell the inner beauty of she whom I adore.
In autumn love’s true springtime sings once more
But sings with a richness beyond compare
Taught by our tears and things we had to bear.
Autumn’s bounteous harvest of glad amour
Is richer far than springtime’s budding love,
And glows with the warmth of a golden light
That flows from the heart of heaven above,
For autumn’s love is fraught with Love’s delight.
I would not trade this love for springtime love.
Early love can’t compare with autumn bright.
