small affirmation

i found a B/w copy of one of my very first collages,from very way back... i had experimented
periodically..... long before it became a passion. i have no idea where the original is.
nevertheless, it was this bit of poetry that grabbed me, so i put dozens of 15th century angels
all around the text. mood was celtic ethereal. i want to pass it along, for it is really our intention,
and where we focus  our attention that reveals to us the direction of our life's path.
these words address that so very well. enjoy.


"Attention is love, what we must give

children, mothers, fathers, pets,

our friends, the news, the woes of others.

What we want to change, we curse and then

pick up a tool.  Bless whatever you can

with eyes and hands and tongue. If you

can't bless it,  get ready to make it new..."
