She quietly reminisced . It was very hot in the market place, she found it too busy and crowded, while she was selling her wares. Simple jewellery, she made from pieces of wood and scraps of metal; she was tired and hot. When she shut her eyes she swayed in the heat. Earlier that day, a lovely butterfly flew into the house, before she could catch it; there it flew out again, like an omen. It had the colours of gold and peacock blue that shimmered in the heat...Seven Tales of the Timeless Traveller consists of seven historical and romantic journeys into other lives with moral lessons that the souls learn. The author Susanne West is a spiritual writer, poet and healer living in Lincolnshire.
