I always wonder about destiny and fate and chance and luck and how they play a part in our lives... the following thoughts fit nicely with my thinking.. It was a sunny day in Paris And I was looking for coffee and conversation to fill my day I found your bar at the end of my street You were smiling and speaking warmly In French tones with the locals I struggled with my French but you said ‘it’s OK, I speak English’ So I ordered a cafe creme (legere!) s.v.p. You laughed out loud at my French And ignored the others while you spoke with me And I hoped it wasn’t too obvious How I was smiling at the thought of being lost In you Be kind at heart....for everyone you meet has their own battle to fight......... |

To know Paris is to know the truth of self betrayal. |

Destiny is a VERY interesting thing isn't it? Just something to sit back and think about it all day, and of course fit some writing time in for poetry! ARCTIC WIND |
