The issue features original works by members, including vivid pieces reflecting on sunrise, sunset, and moonbeams as sources of wonder, reflection, and peace. It also includes poems and short narratives that explore nature’s beauty and the feeling of enchantment in everyday moments.","The truth is…we gather on the Third Monday of each month to practice our writing skills. We listen and share in each other’s work. We are small in number and our commitment is strictly to produce and foster creativity among our members.  \nWe started in July 1999 and consist of adults that enjoy writing memoirs, commentaries, essays, poems, and/or prose. Our simple method each month is to use a pre-selected word or phrase as the basis of a story, an idea, an opinion, a derivative of, or an implied essence of and write a 1 to 1 ½ page document. We share our stories, comment, and in that way build up our writing skills through practice and presentation. The atmosphere is friendly and supportive, and the feedback is gentle.  \nCurious? Always wanted to try writing for fun, entertainment, or even profit? Come visit with us at any ofour open meetings. Bring a sample of your work. Sit in and see what we do. If you like it, join us every month and become a member.  \nOriginal Works by Members of the Pen & Ink Writers’ Group © 2018 Pen & Ink Writers’Group  \nJuly 2018 selection – Moonbeams  \nSmall Wonders  \nBy Val Collins  \nShe marveled at the mornings’ sunrise each day with the gradual appearance of light creeping across the sky in myriad color combinations and shyly illuminating the earth then bursting forth in full glory. A new day, a new beginning with promises of life moving forward was in the works. Anticipation of possibilities gave hope to the spirit. Awake from restorative slumber. Make plans, follow plans, accomplish goals, live another day. She drank in the sights but also the sounds as birdsong heralds this daily routine, for our winged companions are also filled with wonder, or so it seems, at these miraculous beginnings. Their warbling fills the air in morning greeting, the chirruping announcing,“We’re happy to be alive!” The air is cool or pleasantly warm in the mornings ofthe summer and crisply invigorating in those of the winter. Yes appreciation of sunrise was not lost on her.  \nShe greeted sunset at days’ end with profound appreciation too. Again the sky is lit up with a kaleidoscope of color, changing hues by the minute. A light show in progress is presented as the sun gently lowers itself in grand magnificence. The golden luster of sun descending, highlights the resulting colors in a multitude of shades of reds, yellows, oranges violets, all of which illuminate the earth below. This color play hints of divine powers at work in the world and seems to say,“Job well done”. Indeed we are rewarded for the toils ofthe day. The birds take to their nests, varieties of insects may voice their presence now and other night creatures make their appearance. Peacefulness settles in as twilight emerges and rest summons the spirit.  \nAnd then... the magic of the moon appears casting its beautiful beams across the night sky. What is this ball oflight so carefully placed in the universe? It is ever changing, waxing and waning through gentle and predictable circadian rhythms of activity. There is a profound peacefulness in this moonlight, these moonbeams. The soft color and muted light accompanies the nights’ whispers in perfect partnership. This time of night moonbeams, when in full view, abound and soften the brightness of rising and setting sun. Indeed the beams seem to dance over the land in skillful delicacy.  \nAs she pondered these gifts of nature she realized something quite profound. All the people she loved who lived far away and those dear ones who left this world were all apart of these daily miracles. Those living saw the same sun and moon marvels as she and thus by virtue of this fact remained in close concert with her. Those loved one gone from this life were now a very part of these gifts. They remain in the essence of the marvelous sunrise, the spectacular sunset and in the moon and its beams. They are now all a part of this wonder. And this brought her great peace.  \n\\#\\#\\#  \nMoonbeams  \nBy Edward John Scheffler  \nStand","cbCaidPUugjB5qr5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidPUugjB5qr5","pdf",227114,1,5,"English","en",105,"# Monthly Writing Practice\n## Community meeting and sharing method\n# July 2018 Selection: Moonbeams\n## Small Wonders - Val Collins\n## Moonbeams - Edward John Scheffler\n## A Moonlit Sparkle - N.
