memory of past
fades alongside agreed plans
future forgotten

I used to play too
when panelled footballs had laces
goal nets luxury

n.b. Today I made this clay model of a football I was given one Christmas. It was orange, as this will be painted, when dry. Something for my grandson?

L3 (Day 54): In The Cold
The shift from yesterday’s promising warmth of sunshine to this fog threatening existence was brutal. No wind as such, but bitter cold, bitter.

What relief there is

~
n.b. In a complex world, establishing a little bit of peace, love and understanding is always a good thing, however long it takes to get there.

Heaven’s lights will shine bright tonight
In this brilliant galaxy
how will you hear
the star that calls to you?

On Mercury
Retrograde movement
an optical illusion
Orpheus, don’t look!

n.b. Apparently there is a bit of thing when Mercury is backsliding for nostalgia. Being grateful for the good things is one thing, wallowing in the past – meh.
