MY BIRTHDAY TRIP!
HERE IS SOME PHOTOGRAPHY AND A POEM TO MARK THIS NEW YEAR OF MY LIFE.
TWENTY TIMES COMPLETION
‘Meet me by the lighthouse at noon’
whilst the sun stands at its strongest
this way no one will follow us,
and tomorrow
on a boat in the cool of the night
converse with me under the moon and stars
I’ll meet you where you are
The person who came is not the same person who left
I’ve either changed or revealed myself
More to work on or more to accept?
Here’s to another year!
Let’s complete this work.
The first 4 days of summer,
what a pivotal place!
If you seek answers, move during a period of transition,
you’ll either fly or fall
If someone threw me into the ocean maybe I’d know how to swim,
but the view of the sea from the shore is enough to relax me
the soft waves brushing my toes is enough to climatise me
Summer confirmed its presence and I let it in.
Make as many memories as you can, wherever it is natural to do so
Stay in the company of those who provide space for your evolution,
who are prepared to accept all of your phases.
Finally my old paths have been stamped out by new ones,
my references give me peace
but as the day draws to a close,
it’s me
it’s me who gets to make the final decision
Call the shots
I choose my next step
The Lord will order them
The Lord and I will write my destiny
