The Australian carried an article a couple of weekends ago about how poetry is so needed when the heart needs more than words. Each word resonates deeply. Perhaps it's the measured pace that provides the impact. Surely it's the devoted listening of the poet that soaks into the message of Soul.
Many will be familiar with the poems of Godfrey John. We've spoken about them on this blog before. They never fail to move me to somewhere better, no matter how many times I've read the poem before.
So, what if we really decided to drop the idea of a past, a present, and a future. What if we decided to BE. That's what poem number 43 "This Moment of Your Living" demands.
Shiny shiny you. Now.
