Thank you Cate for this great poem and
thank you for putting it on this thread, this thread meant a lot to me.

I have not been back on the forum since over a year, it is nice to be right back where I left.

Thank you Mat and all the others for the ride, I loved it.

Thank you so much for the ride, you guys are really great and a lot of fun. :D Thank you - Thank you- And thank you again! Mat, I always loved to listen to your stories and I still do. A piece of my heart and soul will always belong to you, to the outback, and Andamooka. Thanks for sharing. Love to ...

I think it is not I am who I am, but You Know Who I Am...

Yes that's how it goes

I thought I saw the rosty old blue standing in front of that pub. I am surprised you guys haven't travelled further. I see hurt, I see anger! I am truly sorry Mat, but I thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart that you bring, me being so demanding, to my attention. I work on it. Yes and: I ...

Lizzy, THANK YOU! :) and hug As I walk I hum :"I loved you in the morning,...your eyes are soft with sorrow,Hey, that's no way to say goodbye." ? Before I understood any of LC's or other English lyrics, I listend to it, with just feeling it out of my stomach, heart. I love LC not only for ...

I think the beer or certainly the schnapps gets to me. :? Adam, I am moved by your poem about your brother. There are no words I can say to alleviat the pain one feels when loosing someone dear to you. I can only say that I know that pain, that missing, that longing, and not to want to accept it. Th...

Hi Mat What I like about this poem is, that it is about connections. ( Sorry Lizzy, I mentio it way too often, but it is such a big topic in my life) . Truly recogizing the person, animal, plant.. I am with in that presence, in that very moment, seing the sensitivity, vulnerability and to hold space...

Hi Adam After I read your poem earlier, I had to come back to it. It struck and touched my soul. Quote: "If you decipher my poem you may verily see there's something within us eternity We are partners in life all of us here no religion a boundary just face it: we fear" I am struck by the w...

Aaahhh! The chocolate! Cadbury, as good as the Swiss chocolate! :oops: Dreaming back,... I guess the string on the little purse gets loose and memories of hot, red sand, blue sky, green bushes, and emus running by are spilling out. I love it, that desert, with all its contrasts! "Johnny’s got a...

Lizzy, that is exactly right, this last paragraph just captured my heart.

quote: "I am no other than the hymn of the human soul,..."


It is simply beautiful!

Love to all fo you

Mat, how is your musing going? Chasing the dreams and dreaming back, is as you say, really very tempting. Living in the past, living in the future. Yes that is how I hide from the now.
Lizzy, how is your dreaming?

I wonder how Diane is doing. How was Anjani, Diane?

Take care guys

Wow! Bernard, I love it, I just love it. I think it is strong, rich, and I just- love it.

I am a moon traveller, a lover of mercy, a stranger standing in an open doorway

I am glad we get to hear the whole piece. Beautiful words.

Thanks
katrin

Mat, my heart is weeping... thanks. As you know, I love old things, people, etc. and it is not the old, but as you wrote the "beaten to character." To me, the beauty in it is the story it tells, the path it has behind. I am fascinated by people with a lot of lines and wrinkles, each tellin...

I sing Bosse's song, you speak so from my heart. [quote] "So connected So at one Our love will last like the burning sun" I remember a time I felt so connected in Australia's outback, close to the opal mines...and yes, I know the love will last for ever. Mat, I remember you cooking eggs, a...
