MARRIAGE DREAMS
by Marcia Meara
She longed
For comfort.
Married,
Safe,
Together.
All evenings
Sorted out,
Detached from worry.
She needed to think,
To be certain.
No mistakes.
She needed a plan…
Satisfaction.
SOURCE: “Marriage Dreams” by Marcia Meara is based in page 214 of Wake-Robin Ridge, a romantic suspense novel by Marcia Meara (2013), available in paperback and Kindle at Amazon.com.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Marcia Meara is a native Floridian, living in the Orlando area with her husband of almost 28 years, two silly little dachshunds and four big, lazy cats. She’s fond of reading, gardening, hiking, canoeing, painting, and writing, not necessarily in that order. But her favorite thing in the world is spending time with her two grandchildren, eight-year-old Tabitha Faye, and seven-month-old Kaelen Lake. At age 69, Marcia wrote Wake-Robin Ridge, her first novel, and Summer Magic: Poems of Life and Love. She is currently working on her second novel, Swamp Ghosts, set alongside the wild and scenic rivers of central Florida. In the past year, Marcia’s poetry has appeared in four Silver Birch Press anthologies. Her philosophy? It’s never too late to follow your dream. Just take that first step, and never look back.
