Perpetual Bliss

The night was an empty velvet canvas--
The moon, a budding artist in Gay Paris.
He painted a sheer line for some emphasis
With a few brushstrokes of his palette;


And dotted the blue midnight fabric
With a series of streak-like diamonds
Shining ever so brightly and mystique
Over shimmering , moonlit oceans;

Where the horizon melds with ocean
Upon such a romantic ambiance
Under a shining star in heaven
Two lovers came in Unison,
Caught in a web of sexy, sheer romance;

Pearls of sweat bathed our bodies
On that sensual Eve as we embraced
Merging as two colliding galaxies;
Beating in a crescendo, our hearts raced.

Our scent mingled with the essence
Of the salty, ocean breeze
speechless with the Evening's evanescence;
Begging this night will never cease;

The waves danced upon the ocean
Like sexy, sheer organza;
Likewise our bodies swayed on the horizon
Like silk, in a ballet extravaganza;



Mute by your beauty and sexiness
I am overwhelmed by your silken skin.
Sequestered by your dulcet essence,
My senses fail me as I hold your hand.

Lost forever in a sensuous kiss,
Our hearts entangled by this web of passion.
Ravished by this night of perpetual bliss;
Hoping this night won't fade into oblivion.

The Curse of Anna Greene

Winner of the 2010 NanoWrimo Competition

1298 Waltham Abbey

When a local Village boy is poisoned, the quiet Village of Waltham point a finger at the Greene Witch—the evil spawn of Gunter Greene. Against the admonition of Daniel Goode, the Magistrate, a lynch mob gathers at Waltham Abbey Church and go out to destroy the Greene Witch. The mob chases Anastasia deep into the heart of Epping Forest, stabbing her and her unborn child to death. Looking into their eyes with her emerald eyes, Anastasia places an evil curse on the Village—a curse so deadly that it wipes out half of Europe.
Told in flashback, the story spans several centuries— from the 13th to the 14th century up until the first half of the twentieth century. Fifteen-year-old Anastasia Ėmeraud Greene battles to discover her true identity. Growing up in Langon, France with her father, Günter Greene and Madeline Dupree—a woman whom her father kidnaps from the neighbouring village of Bordeaux to become his infant daughter’s wet nurse, young Anastasia feels isolated and demands to know who she really is. Who and where is her mother? Whom has she inherited her feisty personality and strange urges from? To her surprise, she discovers that she is the daughter of a powerful and sinister Warlock who is accused of kidnap, murder, rape and sodomy......not to mention sorcery both in France and England.

Her father is prosecuted by the Village’s most feared Magistrate, Daniel Goode—a respected pillar of the community who can recite the Vulgate backwards and stain even the purest of souls with one reproachful look of admonition. Günter Greene is sentenced to death by burning at the stake—a sentence so severe, it is reserved for only the most heinous of criminals and heretics. Fifteen- year-old Anastasia witnesses not only her father’s execution, but watches nearby as her twelve-year-old half-sister, Amethyst, is savagely beaten, raped and killed by a group of vigilante.

1926, Waltham Abbey:
Beatrice Brown, a theology student at Heythrop College, hopes to become a professor of theology one day. Her class is recently studying the historical case of the Greene Witch and the legend of the Curse of Anna Greene.

At the new student’s insistence, Beatrice shares a cup of tea with him. Soon Beatrice discovers that there is more to this new student than meets the eye......who is he and why does he pursue her?

Bartholomew

I have just published my new book, ' Bartholomew'. Bartholomew is a cute story about a real talking Bookworm called 'Bartholomew' who was born and live on a shelf at the William Wayne Public Library in Upstate, New York.

One day he was discovered by a little Spanish girl named Elena Marie Guzman as she was searching for a good book to read. Startled, she told her brother that there was a bug in the shelves. Her older brother teased her and didn't believe her....until he discovered the talking Bookworm for himself. Children's Librarian, Ms Duboi, annoyed that the children were making a rukus in her library came over to Charles Guzman and asked him what the problem was? Skeptical at first, Ms Dubois sent the noisy children home. But then, that very Evening she discovered the talking Bookworm between the shelves as she was shelving some books on her trolley. That same afternoon she had discovered an amazing rise to the children's circulation. Then, Ms Dubois had a great idea. She asked Bartholomew to be Story Time Mascot.

The children's Mother saw Bartholomew and screamed 'The library is full of bugs!' thus starting a rumor that the library was infested with bugs. Thus began a Riot which turned into a boycott and the William Wayne Public Library will never be the same again.
