  • You gave me

    your heart to love, and to protect. My constant  companion, the one I clung to above all others. You licked my tears, we walked, we ran, we snuggled, we snoozed. And I always knew that you  were the one… The chances of soulmates being slim. I felt awe and wonder in your presence, a wise,…

  • Kanvhwiya for Frank

    An old man ha! That might be  the state of your canoo, Dear One, yet it could not be further from the truth. You shine. Your glimmer. You thrum with an energy deeper than yourself. You heal. You reach, you seek to understand to grow to nurture. You are a blessing unto us all my …

  • Every life

    needs a pretzel, a bretzel, or perhaps even, a lobster. That special being, someone, thing, event, experience, both to look  forward to, and back on. Those things that anchor us in our humanity. This unique experience in our soul’s current flesh covered  canoos.  So today, when you have that moment, over coffee, or perhaps in…

  • The kindness of strangers, part 471

    I notice him near instantly as I walk in. Silver fox, tall, open smile. Holding organic yoghurt and sourdough bread. A good combination I muse, and head for the chocolate display case. We make small talk in the queue and as I attempt to pay my watch freezes. So sorry, I stutter, I’ll just pop…

  • You

    gave me wings. Work wings, at first. You with your stories and parables and near-blind belief in the extraordinary capabilities of ordinary people. You  gave me life wings, next. As your genuine care and kindness made me realise that I was worth much more than I had been selling myself short for. You gave me…

Do you know that that tiny, kind gesture was the  final  push, that got me  there? Out  into the  world.…
