This book is a fictional account of Rosa McCauley's childhood on a large farm. It will tell you about the many adventures she used to go on with her pet dog Chester and pet goat Chiva. It will also tell you how Rosa got her first babysitting job. Having learned how to take care of chickens, pigs, goats on the farm, she grew up to be a very responsible girl.

Playing soldiers is one thing, but trespassing onto a forbidden community full of hatred and bent on keeping the status quo was another thing. It was pure suicide for those two black boys.
And the suspense builds on.
Find out what happened when some clansmen spotted them galloping away.....from their cross stockpile....

To You, My Inspiration (Black History Month, 2012)

To You, my Inspiration (Black History Month, 2012)
by J. J. Charles, 2012
Laughing and crying in the same breath and with the same fervor
Laughing to keep from crying about our dreams deferred
Laughing about our solitude in crowded spaces, laughing with much ardor
Crying about the huge gap of indifference despite our interdependence
Laughing about our smartphones and social media that make us dumber
Crying about the mountain we have to climb each time we gaze upon its peak
The glass ceiling still exists to remind us of the road nonetheless traveled
It appears there is always something on our path to knock us down
However a thousand times we’ll get back up ‘cause our hope is well anchored
Nothing is a gift. All is given to us on a loan. Grateful we must continuously be
For the achievements of our lives and immense joy brought to us by family and friends
Oh such a feast to be alive today and be able to share the bounty of these times!
In comparison, others before us had a harder time. Yet, they went on their way
Singing, whistling, loving, laboring, dreaming, and dancing in the rain
What unites us to our forebears is the eternal spring of renaissance
Swearing to bury and not to recycle the ills of the past, we will be triumphant
In our forward-looking stance in many areas of our common terrestrial pilgrimage
For without hope, we are like a broken-winged bird
Therefore, we will keep on laughing, dreaming, and hoping for a better tomorrow
Over will be our daily heartache, worries, misunderstanding, and deception!
Oh, may this day be hastened to be christened the day of pure joy and glory!
