unlucky for me i seem to have retained one aspect of my artistic nature
but its based mainly on design
and has a strong obsessive compulsive component
so i’m finding it hard to deal with the missing 24th 25th and 26th.
Me too Lisa, not putting the pressure on Poetic but the day I told a few people to visit was the precise day that time stood still in the Poetic Universe…
So glad you’re back!
The 24th was a photo of a tibetan with a goatee ( beard) and the quote said : “There was an old man with a beard, Who said: ‘It is just as I feared! Two owls and a hen, Four larks and a wren Have all built their nests in my beard” ( Edward Lear, I would paste up the photo myself but I was ubale to)
and the 26th was a photo of a goat with a tibetan child looking up in wonderment at the once a year event of the unfolding of the great thangka at Drepung and the quote said “success is co-operative” ( from the sentiments of Malcolm Gladwell)
HI Fred. Thanks for the comments. have been in Mainland China and unable to reply due to firewalls. I met lots of people who say things like – I wanted to be a musician but my teacher really told me that i wasnt any good, and even after twenty years , these people still believe the opinion of one teacher. Amazing! How about your boys now, Are they doing anything to regain their inner artists?

When my boys were children ( like all children)
they were wonderful artists….when they had to
go to school it was educated out of them…..
