The Royal Wedding of Harry and Meghan

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.

Oh to be young again. Well maybe…;)

What an extraordinary Royal Wedding. Sublime is the word. Even the brass necked Ricky Gervais must have shed a tear! Don’t know how anyone could see much with all those gorgeous hats, though. How come you always get the best seats Clooney? ! ! You like got an 'in' with the 'Church mafia'.?...Me oh my: Amal to die for! No hat accusations there. If there is a Stendhal Syndrome of hats i think i caught it. How r u Stephen Jones :) 

Bishop Michael Curry is the 27th and current presiding bishop and primate of the Episcopal Church. Elected in 2015, he is the first African American to serve in that capacity. I’d give up Lent for that guy!-:)

An Absolutely Ordinary Rainbow

I sent a video of me reading this to my Father's funeral. It was all very fraught, whether or not they took any notice..i still don't /will never know...Les Murray came to our school and read and talked. It was like having Eliot or Yeats beside you.  Not a lecture hall but a stifflingly tiny hot classroom. Osmosis i guess....i swear by it!

I love Danny B.'s conducting. But Princess Charlotte, the aadvarks, and squirrels voted for THIS:) 

if u listen to all these versions you will never make fun of the waltz.

Ever again.

And somewhere on the www. you'll discover the wondrous non-supine Riccardo Muti conducting the waltz and a Mozart with the Vienna Phil that is almost Louis Andriessen in its intensity as if it were Brahms! Well- it kinda was! Sir Roger Norrington is the expert...don't think he'd concede to the New Year's Day Wien concert...aardvarks have innate double-reeds:) Hint, hint.

All the animals of the London Zoo just just signed up to be in my movie! Yeh!! Animal ink. Can't go wrong.

Forget A-List. Clooney excepted....;)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once upon a time

there was a lonely ballroom.

my paint peeling, my colors fading

Then one strange day...
