“Birth of a New World”
Painting by Salvador Dali
From wikiart.org
inhabit the storm
give your voice
to the thunder
become the force
God had in mind
when He started
it all with a bang
it’s your world
use your power
electrify life blow
away old mistakes
build it new
build it right
build it clean
Writer Lynne Sargent
Poetry Puttering by Pax & Company
Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte
"drink from the well of your self and begin again" ~charles bukowski
no dust here
Looking ahead, without looking back (too often)
flights of fancy from New Zealand
You're never alone, if you've something to share
All you touch and all you see / is all your life will ever be

Oddly I recall the lyric of a song my son played to death a few years back. It was by an American band called Green Day – I think the title was ‘Minority’ – and whilst you might not (in fact certainly would not) support their politics the sentiment was in that song in accord with your comment in terms of the worth of current politicians.

If only people would listen! This is beautiful. How can we all agree on one right way, that is where it always gets me, and gets complicated.
