Today, in the town squares of all great cities
around this beautiful globe,
we will, by common consent, remove divisive flags
hung by history’s tainted shreds of angry pride;
folding them away like old aunty’s table cloths.
.
And see draped instead, from mountain heights,
a more fantastic sight; our real heritage.
Reflective of all earth’s passion and intensity
absorbing in amazement all our pain,
this is our rainbow – and the music of a shared song.
music of a shared song.. togetherness. A lovely theme to begin a new year.
Visualisation works for me. The hardest part seems to be knowing what we want.
yes agreed. And why doesn’t it get any easier the older we get? I thought the saying was wisdom comes with age?
Hi Julia,
I hope it is not too late to wish you a wonderful New Year. May 2013 bring you more happiness, love, and success. Sorry subscription went messed up, and now I am resubscribing, looking forward to reading more of your poetry! Thank you again, many blessings and much love to you. 🙂

Thank you Subhan – a great 2013 to you too. Welcome back to the cave. How’s the world with you?
The world is….. much brighter! 🙂 How’s yours?
very tiring, but I am optimistic. It’s time to decide where to put the energy.
haha, yes, that’s right.
