Paradise Lost When I speak of the country around Little Caston I think of a beautiful a little creek near where my Bullard grandparents lived in Leflore County, Oklahoma. In that long time ago in 1942, my brother Gerald and I were sent down there to help on Grandpa’s farm.

When I was growing up in Houston, our family lived across the street from a man and woman who had married later in life. Mr. Brill met and married Mr. Roberts after her childbearing years had passed, so the two of them enjoyed a honeymoon that lasted well into retirement. He was a wonderful, doting husband who loved her deeply, and she found great joy in the man of her dreams. Mr. Roberts was not only the light of her life; he provided much of its meaning. Then, a sudden heart attack took him from her. Her grief knew no bounds.

St Patrick’s Day was never a big deal in Stonewall. In fact, if it hadn’t been for those old Warner Path-A Newsreels at the Main Theatre I might not have even known there was one. Or maybe it was my sister Sue giving me a pinch on St Patrick’s Day because I didn’t have any green on my shirt that reminded me. There were no St. Patrick’s Day Parades in Stonewall. Or even in the big city of Ada.

Ever suddenly been transported back in time by just a whiff of a lingering smell in the air? The sight of a house? A quick glimpse of a stranger’s profile who instantly reminds you of someone in your past? Or the taste of a certain food that suddenly takes you back to Grandma’s kitchen.

In a world where geopolitical tensions often dominate headlines, it becomes increasingly crucial significance of standing in solidarity with nations that share our values and aspirations for peace. As a beacon of democracy in the Middle East, Israel has faced numerous challenges and threats to its existence.

Symbolic of the hypocrisy that haunts our society these days: The light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing and stopped at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection.

Around Town......by John Bill Martin

We were dressed and ready to go out for the New Years Eve Party. We turned on a night light, turned the answering machine on, covered our pet parakeet and put the cat in the backyard.

Riding the Dinky I have found out a lot about the vanished “Dinky” a railroad phenomenon in parts of rural America. When I lived over in Centrahoma from about 1938 to 1944 a little train came through town that provided mail and passenger services between Atoka, Coalgate, and Oklahoma City.

I woke up this morning and knew that today, The sun would not be shining and the clouds would be gray. As I stepped outside, rain fell upon my head.
