Love at first Sight Hello stranger tie your shoe lets go for a walk. With your hand ‘round my fingers of vibrations we’ll go, laughing nonsense songs to the moon we’ll go, feeling deep into earthen jugs we’ll go, falling silently into tumbling cataracts we will go you and I. Before the night is done we will have exhausted the wind, swept meadow and mossy banks with incense, we will have turned protoplasm into skyscrapers, opened a mote around the highest castle, breached the dialectic and announced the known. Before the night is done we will have animated the inevitable you and I. When we return we will lie upon water lilies and wonder at our wonder. With one hand dipped within the pool we'll watch the ever ripple-circles moving towards infinity. |

This requires three or four close readings to fully get the richness of it, so again I must ask your permission to print this my friend! Can I come lie on the water lilies too? - What a fantastic image. |
