The splendour
and joy
of looking freshly
and without
ill judgement
into the face
of the unadulterated
moment.
The inspiration
that comes
from seeing the
unique combinations
of the unexpected
and in finding
the novel
in the predictable.
The obsession
with things
in the world
that do not sit
in a person’s usual
neat shopping basket
of desire.
The wonder
of looking into
the beyond
and finding there
fragments of yourself
quite apart from
the ordinariness
of life.
The entering
of the world
of the other person
through words
and emotions shared
in serendipity,
to reveal
those hidden parts
and make them known
and understood.
The openness
to all
that life,
with its unpredictable
personality,
wishes to serve
in the great
and grand
feast of living.
