    Funny how we only notice the simpler things - towards our end. I find myself paying more and more attention to each little curve and color of even a blade of grass...
    thank you for reading this.

    This is a nice tribute to an iconic figure who sadly feels that he is "Sentenced to Life". But Australia doesn't have Pacific sunsets; lovely sunrises, yes.

    If I can, can I request you read "Clouds and Waves" by Tagore. Your voice is marvelous. I would love to hear it read by you! Thank you for making all these videos that you have. God bless.

    Wonderful imagery. Its something when a poem makes you smell, but I smell dust. A Fish pond. I know the yard with the pond, and and the old man sitting, and see a brilliant plain bird land on a leafy branch to sharply cut into the sunlight.
