All works in progress...
As Oscar Wilde said
'Those that find ugly meanings in Beautiful things are corrupt without being charming. This is a fault. Those who find Beautiful meanings in Beautiful Things are the cultivated. For these there is Hope. They are the elect to whom Beautiful things mean only Beauty.'

Travel light a friend once said to me,
'Yeah right' i thought with my big screen TV,
but over the years I've changed my view,
now i know there are very few things truly essential to you.
...
When i came to the lodge there were two ways to go,
carry on drinking and go with the flow,
or find myself, at last, from beneath all the masks,
and release my true self, too late, but at last.
...
I hope to shield behind my Karma,
protected by my innocent grace,
yet when i look a little further,
the smile fades quickly from my face.
...
So here I sit, looking at my cat,
if you'ld never met, wouldn't think she's all that,
but if you got to know her personally,
it all becomes pretty plain to see.
