We are creatures of habit us humans

Staying safe there in our comfort zones

Naturally, there will be exceptions

To this unwritten rule

Going off the roadmap most of us follow

Gung-ho types charging forth into life

Into any new situation full of bravado

Fearlessly shaking the tree of wisdom

Extracting every last gram of excitement

From this adventure we all signed up...

Caring easily giving

Gentle words spoken

Three eyes open

Easily to fathom

Harmony energy atom

Imagine creating this hand-held device

available for all to enjoy.

Pacifying vast swathes of the population.

The people would voluntarily spend most of their time investing their attention on this device to the detriment of observing the reality of genuine life going on around them.

Regardless of this being direct interaction with fellow humans.

Changes in their rights as citizens.

Standing next to the library a gallery of art

Nourishing the soul, culture they impart

Paintings, sound, all arts it embraces

Taking us to many far away places

Streets a mix of Victorian architectural hints

Mixing harmoniously with all the glitz and chintz

What should be a total clash somehow blends in its uniqueness

Becoming quite sublime to the senses in its completenes...

Irresistible the two-hundred-year-old mills

I would love to collect them in all honesty

Like Clough William-Ellis made Portmeirion

I would have my own industrial history village

Silk, cotton and any other mill is welcome

I would rescue neglected gems of architecture

The derelict, unloved, soon to be demolished

I would restore them to their former glory

This was our ancestor...

Born 16th June 1890

Known to the world as Stan Laurel

As he would later relocate to another continent

The greenest valley spread far and wide

Slowly settlement starts on either side

Bronze age people, eventually two villages grew

Looking from a distance at one another, what next to do?

Great plans are conceived, as elders confer to discuss

To be better able to trade, a track we’ll make between us

The story is the same

It’s always the same

The need takes me, and I must act

Overwhelming need to escape

Escape from wall to wall people

Desiring a different experience

Hear my heartbeat

Truly breathe clean air

Solitude where are you?

Compulsion to be truly alone

Wanting ways to seek

Seek and we will find

One cold December day finds me in Grizedale Forest

 “Why I’m not feeling the energy, man?”

Hmmm this has to be a mystery

How does mysterious Avebury

Somehow mysteriously elude me…

Oh how I endeavoured to do the right thing

Even camped but a stones throw from the village

Walk the avenue of standing stones

Ensure I’m within the right energy

Continue around the circle of standing stones

Seemingly it doesn’t matter

A circle made of thirty-eight volcanic stones

Like monumental cards that have been thrown

By some giant dealing out his giant deck

The Cumbrian landscape to bedeck

To sit within the circle, reaching to the past

Those Neolithic builders, a legacy to last

Castlerigg as the sun rises in the sky

The reason it was built, still to wonder why?

Warm sun drying the stones ...

Connection to nature

Living by the seasons

Four thousand years

Finding rhyme and reason

Revering the old ways

Stones of the circle

Down through eons

Journey internal

Dare to care

Feel them today

Druids calling us

A canoe launches into shallowest water

All but a stream

High in the mountains

Forward motion begins

Avoiding rocks

Patiently progress is made

Slowly yet surely

Widening and then

In an instant transformed

A cacophony of noise fills his ears

Rapids!

With long-won skill, he traverses

Shooting onwards

Summersaulting

Yet in control

Then calm returns

He remembers his great grandfather

Wisdom etched in all the lines creasing his face

He said

And this is how history unfolded

Down through countless generations

Please help open my mind
Rationality limits potential

Quieten pointless ponderings

Let my mind be free

A thousand random thoughts vie for attention

Only the chatter of mundaneness

Never did mean anything

Time for a new paradigm

Overdue awakening within

Intuition then inner knowing

To be still from inside out

To listen to nothing

His friends thought what a pity

Abandoning his job in the city

They judged him to be quite mad

Early mid-life crisis, how sad

Next, he distributed some of his wealth

Considered it essential for good health

Trinkets of a life he had turned away from

And pretty soon he will also be long gone

A Scottish island to be his new home

Clean air, wildness, freedom to roam

Showing farmers exactly where to dig

Parched crops wilting as far as eyes can see

Water hidden, over there, by the old yew tree

The water diviner struck liquid gold once again

Year after year, the farmer’s gratitude enough

The temple of the body beautiful, with a strain and tremble

Music pumping, yet not really noticed

As bodies are pumping, to be noticed

Machines activated by human power

Gaining bulging muscles or loosing bulges they want to shed

And a thousand other scents

Inspiration…where to seek pure inspiration?

That innermost creative beauteous elation

Living the urban life and wondering how

Is inner connection possible here and now?

It’s alive in the buildings, people and sound

Yet here is nature, she never quite goes
