Before the Rain
“When you’re a child you learn there are three dimensions
Height, width and depth
Like a shoebox
Then later you hear there’s a fourth dimension
Time
Hmm
Then some say there can be five, six, seven…”.
Paterson
Secret Garden
“Footfalls echo in the memory
Down the passage which we did not take
Towards the door we never opened
Into the rose-garden. My words echo
Thus, in your mind”.
Trees like men
“Misunderstandings and neglect occasion more mischief in the world than even malice and wickedness”.
It was April
“Sharply the menacing wind sweeps over
The bending poplars, newly bare,
And the dark ribbons of the chimneys
Veer downward; flicked by whips of air”.
Gordon Comstock
Milestones
“Listing your personal milestones is like storing a pocketful of sunshine for a rainy day. Sometimes our best is simply not enough…. We have to do what is required”.
Winston Churchill
Intesection
“When you are standing at a crossroads in your life, realize that the greatest block that you can put in front of your Self is the idea that there is a right choice”.
Story Waters
The Sound of Wind
“It’s different for you and me. You study, you become enlightened; I study, I become confused”.
Lev Tolstoj
