A Tal Kite Sky Mantra

One is past, the other is the future. One is a stone ; the other is a bird's feather. One is the pull of gravity; the other lifting, free, soaring. One is cloaked in cold shadows; the other warmed by bright rays of light. One setting is small, a wall; the other immense, without bounds, open. One is still, dead; the other is moving, alive. One is a place in which we live; the other is a place in which we dream.

from his writing on the Art Volant Symposium in Palma de Majorca 1995.
reminds me of Jobim’s Waters of March...

Tal Day 2023

 Full Moon last night kept Romig up, I think, on this The Tal Day for 2023. 



We so want to celebrate in some way but the Streeter family feels shaky and fragile. Energy levels are low today. So the funny mail arriving from a local Hardware store is so welcome ! Romig and I go by train to Cleveland for her tests and meetings with Doctors there in six days time. There is the not knowing, the desire to feel better and the balancing of that with the reality of the situation. Best I can do I say, I’ll be back to this page, this thought in two weeks time. Please oh please send good vibes on the 9th, 10th and 11th !
