I am from Tupelo...My name is Patricia Neely-Dorsey. I am from Tupelo,MS and the author of Reflections of a Mississipi Magnolia-A Life in Poems.<br />I have been enjoying reading your blog and was wondering if you might possibly feature my book on your blog to introduce my book to your readers. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Patricia Neely Dorsey's Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia-A Life in Poems is "a true celebration of the south and things southern." The author states , "There are so many negative connotations associated with Mississippi and the south in general. In my book, using childhood memories, personal thoughts and dreams, I attempt to give a positive glimpse into the southern way of life. In my book I try to show that there is much is more to Mississippi and the south than all of the negatives usually portrayed .I invite readers to Meet Mississippi (and the south) Through Poetry ,Prose and The Written Word." <br /> <br />SOUTHERN LIFE <br />If you want a glimpse of Southern life, <br />Come close and walk with me; <br />I'll tell you all the simple things, <br />That you are sure to see. <br />You'll see mockingbirds and bumblebees, <br />Magnolia blossoms and dogwood trees, <br />Caterpillars on the step, <br />Wooden porches cleanly swept; <br />Watermelons on the vine, <br />Strong majestic Georgia pines; <br />Rocking chairs and front yard swings, <br />Junebugs flying on a string; <br />Turnip greens and hot cornbread, <br />Coleslaw and barbecue; <br />Fried okra, fried corn, fried green tomatoes, <br />Fried pies and pickles too. <br />There's ice cold tea that's syrupy sweet, <br />And cool, green grass beneath your feet; <br />Catfish nipping in the lake, <br />And fresh young boys on the make. <br />You'll see all these things <br />And much, much more, <br />In a way of life that I adore. <br />Copyright 2008 Patricia Neely-Dorsey <br />from Reflections of a Mississippi Magnolia-A Life In Poems<br /><br /><br />BOOK AVAILABLE: www.reeds.ms/book.asp<br />or www.Amazon.com <br />AUTHOR WEBSITE: www.patricianeelydorsey.webs.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05095033716134400535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4408347848505849344.post-35130396503305613212009-06-16T03:14:15.590-07:002009-06-16T03:14:15.590-07:00I am now getting around to checking out some blogs...I am now getting around to checking out some blogs. and I want to say I love what and how you wrote about yourself. <br /><br />And thank you for peeking in at mine :o)<br />Blessings & Aloha!Personalized Sketches and Sentimentshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10540064662050920859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4408347848505849344.post-79301079419511118732009-06-02T09:42:17.519-07:002009-06-02T09:42:17.519-07:00you are welcome : ) Stay strong girl!
