Walking on a tightrope
Trembling on a thread
Twists and turns as convoluted
As a spider’s web
Tortuous and complicated
Difficult to gauge
The solution can be simple
As turning the page
Seeing with other eyes
What’s staring back at you
Ahead behind and all around
Perceiving things anew

You have no idea, Patrecia! My browser was taking forever to get around the net and I still don’t know whether it just packed up or what… Anyway I’m sorted for now and it’s nice to see you around once again. Hope you’re keeping nice and warm. 🙂

“Perceiving things anew.” Oh yes Denise, this happens often as we age.

Yes it does, Maxi. It often helps to look at things with ‘new eyes’. God bless you. ♥

I am a great believer in taking a break and then looking at things with ‘fresh eyes’, Brian. 🙂

Great, Denise. The fresh outlook can emerge from discussions with others. But we need to be open enough to do that.

How true, John. We need to get rid of misconceptions and bias and see things for what they truly are. Not always easy to do! 😦
