“It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day

I was out choppin' cotton, and my brother was balin' hay

And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat

And mama hollered out the back door, y'all, remember to wipe your feet

And then she said, I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge

Today, Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge”

We make history everyday by existing in a world that has consistently tried to make us disappear.

An aura of innocence and sincerity By Grady Harp - December 5, 2013

Some art and literature critics may dismiss this eloquent little book of the paintings and writings of Richard Stabbert as an amateur trying to enter the realm of important. But they would be depriving themselves of the inherent beauty this little unpretentious book represents. There is a grace to Stabbert's work both visually and in written form that suggests the quiet gentle eloquence of Robert Frost's poetry: nature is as nature is, and we the beholder allow the imprint to register as we wish.
