Let's Dish Up Some Soul Food While I Carry Your Heart...Tanya Hanson

Last weekend at my niece’s wedding, I was honored to recite her favorite poem. She in turn says she is honored (LOL) to have lent her and her new hubby’s name to the H and H in Soul Book, Book Five in my Hearts Crossing Series, released just last Friday!

Here’s the Poem: i carry your heart with me by e.e.cummings

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
I go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,  my darling)
                                  i fear

no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful, you are my world, my true)
and it's you  are whatever a moon has always meant
     and whatever a sun will always sing is you.

     here is the deepest secret nobody knows.
(here is the root of the root,  and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
   higher than the soul can hope,  or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart  (i carry it in my heart)

Here is the blurb:

With her restaurant on the brink of failure, Kelley Martin comes home to Hearts Crossing Ranch both to renew her spirit and make some quick cash as chuck cook on the family’s famed city slicker wagon train adventures. Falling for handsome temporary geneticist Jason Easterday is definitely not on her list of things to do. And despite her wavering faith, Jason’s lack thereof shows her there’s no future for them...even if his kisses indicate otherwise.

Always on the move, Jason Easterday has lived his life searching for...something. When he meets Kelley Martin and allows God into his life, Jason feels he's finally found his place. With Kelley at his side, he'll have a home of his own and a wife to adore. But Kelley won't give him the time of day, and she's leaving town to return to her ex. Now, he must find a way to hold his ground, get her back, and remain where his heart has led him.

Your question: what’s your favorite vegetable? Both the fictional and real-life Kelley are vegetarians. Remember to leave your e-addy with your comment for a chance to win the first four books of the Hearts Crossing Ranch series. I'll be drawing one name later tonight from everybody who commented on any of the five blogs I've posted here over the last three days..

Love to all...and thanks, TRS.
