This is a poem for my friend Colleen, who through her glorious writings, which assist my imagination to be brave and free.
Remain Young and Wild
I’m having a breakfast cuppa
with my friend Chatter Blog from Columbus
sharing our virtual chocolate Teddy-Bears
talking about these current affairs
agreeing we don’t have the answers
today it’s time, for us all to be garden dancers
we’re not lost, but now feeling young and wild
whirlwinds of the day, and our minds are not exiled

How wonderful, touching and fabulous, to wake up to a cup of tea in Geelong with my dear friend Ivor! This was such a heart warming treat Ivor. Thank you for the poem, the virtual garden dance, and the music to lift me. (I think the most favorite song yet!!! It feels so good to listen to !!)
