enough

Posted on Tue, 27 Aug 2024

You never know what is enough, untill you know what is too much / The road excess leads to the palace of wisdom.

I read these in poems of William Blake, in the proverbs of hell.

Good luck! Tom

The elephant and ant

Posted on Tue, 25 Jun 2024

The elephant and ant were walking together over the bridge, the ant said "We make this bridge shake hey?!"

We usually say an elephant "trumpets" or such, but you can say "roar" if you like why not?

Keep well, greetings from Africa!...

Yes. Beautiful ending, man's best friend. Heartbreaking sometimes we feel a duty for mourning. And indeed, it is much more noble to live for someone than to die for someone, sometimes living takes great courage.

Good work, original too! We are in, looking out, man and fish roles reversed! Who's...

Very positive

Posted on Wed, 01 Jan 2025

Excellent poem Rhiannon! Very positive, but somehow it feels we do not have so much to celebrate for. Let us hope then and "trustingly wait".

See you in the New Year! Tom
