The Whistle

My Aunt Mary enjoyed my poems in Reflective Love; however, she challenged me to write beyond my poetry. Although it took a while to figure what to write about, the development of The Whistle came to me while I was doing security work. I met two ladies with different lifestyles and personalities. Once we became acquainted, we exchanged tales of our own lives. Finally, I decided what my book was going to be about. I decided to blend these ladies into one person named Ally. From there, it was just a matter of how Ally made choices, some good and some that would take her on a journey filled with misery, joy, and a collision with Jason and how her whistle became a cherished keepsake.
