Lost

Posted on July 20, 2021 by a foolhardy florilegium

Walking with Wildmen

Posted on December 16, 2020 by a foolhardy florilegium

To walk with the wildmen in places so far flung;singing songs of true beauty that are ever sung.Hearing the sounds of the world that is real;the ‘rhythm eternal’ the one that can heal.Feeling the beat of the earth ‘neath my … Continue reading →

Words

Posted on December 13, 2019 by a foolhardy florilegium
