I small
in front of a Lion
you have the genes
of never ending ones
if you are a VIRGO
of course
intelligence alone is your go
we all are off
your course
but age
is just a
NUMB -ER

all know

Mark,
meet us here
so that we can recognise you
as Ian says
there

we shall continue
the taps/tags
in the dance
till we are aware
and
to Earth never return
some say
we may

My main reading has been of the earlier classics. I love Jane Austen, for instance and I'm actually quite a bit older than when I was forced to retire on health grounds.

No man is an island, by John Donne, 17th century writer and poet.

No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

Keith Logan
the happy chappy
