My thoughts on life

Why is it that, when we are young and have all the time in the world, we make decisions quickly, and when we get older and are running out of time, we make decisions slowly.

I guess this has something to do with having less at stake and having more time to recover from mistakes when we are young. When we are older, even our mistakes become easier to live with.

Poem of the Month - July 2009


I've always loved writing haiku - a tighly defined structure that is entirely liberating.

This is 'beach set' of poems that appear to enjoy each others' company.

Pink ribbon of sky
farewells the orange sun-globe
swallowed by the sea



Small romping puppy
sprays gold sand delightedly
rearranging the beach



Twilight sea watchers
west-facing, while unwitnessed
The full moon rises



Sky of dusted pink
silent ripples silver blue
evening’s stage is set
