Conjuring the Spirits begins with a familiar journey for fifteen year old Madeline Jergens. Since she was a toddler she’s traipsed these parts. Today she does not have her grandfather’s hand to hold as she steps over a fallen log, peels off her shoes and walks across a babbling brook. She slips two miles deep into the backwoods of the Arkansas hills, intent on discovering her tree.

When she was a child she called it the glisten tree. Back then, nobody believed her when she told them about the gossamer winged entities that filled the tree. Butterflies, millers, dragonflies, the adults told her.

Today she discovers the tree’s secret, heavy hung with long buried truths and questions waiting to be unearthed. A caterwauling voice calls from the woods, “Maddie, come.”

What hovers high in the branches of the glisten tree? (140 words)

Sorry I was late in posting. Last evening my granddaughter, along with other artists and photographers had a reception at an art gallery. Early this morning we received a phone call invitation to come see grandson number three play his last basketball game of the season. Got home intending to post on this blog and grandson number five called inviting us to his last game. Whew!
