The Shade of My Own Tree
Author: Sheila Williams
Publisher: One World
ISBN: 0345465172
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Beloved author Sheila Williams beautifully captures the bittersweet humor and vivid adventures of women who survive the worst life can toss at them—and fight back to claim their right to be free, to be themselves, and to live in . . . The courage to change doesn’t come easy. When Opal Sullivan walks out on an abusive husband after fifteen years, she has only her dreams in her pocket. Her new beginning starts in Appalachian River country, where she sees a bit of herself in a graceful but dilapidated house. Like Opal, the house is worn-out and somewhat beaten up, but it still stands proudly and deserves a second chance. So Opal opens her doors—and her heart—to a parade of unforgettable characters. There’s sassy Bette Smith with her cantaloupe-colored hair and four-inch heels; short-tempered Gloria and her devilish son, Troy; the mysterious Dana, who dresses in black and keeps exclusively nocturnal hours; a dog named “Bear” who is afraid of his own shadow; and Jack, who doesn’t mind hanging out with an OBBWA (old black broad with an attitude). It is Jack who helps Opal understand a funny thing about life: You can’t move forward if you keep looking back. . . .

Book Description
For the Love of Things Little bee on the rosebush May you smell the sweet scent of the flower. Never forget this flower in which it will come back When you leave the field in which you fly around You go around trying to find that one you found that day But all you see is gray It's never coming back to you It lost its scent at summer's end Now its winter and you try to stay alive That rosebud is all you think about Just hope for the sun And maybe you will smell that scent once again Not in a dream or a fairy tale Just for the scent you would die a thousand times over You wait in the cold where you found it But the sun never comes Summer's dew runs through the field of dreams The winter's cold is gone Flowers bloom And those roses come back to life But the bee has died waiting for the flower The poor being lies beside the rosebush, its dying wish For that sweet scent Now rose-red buds lie on its grave That is love for beauty And not for entertainment of others
