TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES |
|
Due to circumstances beyond our
control......! Sorry everyone, today hasn't been much fun. We've had a nightmare of a day
from a technical point of view and this has prevented us from posting the normal Flight
Plan. To compensate, we've doubled up on the poems
which gives me the opportunity of including one of my all time favorites - hope you enjoy
it.

Pushing the Clouds Away
Clouds are not the cheeks of angels you know
they are only clouds.
Friendly sometimes,
but you can never be sure.
If I had longer arms
I'd push the clouds away
or make them hang above the water somewhere else,
but I'm just a man
who needs and wants,
mostly things he'll never have.
Looking for that thing that's hardest to find -
I've been going a long time now
along the way I've learned some things.
You have to make the
good times yourself
take the little times and make them into big times
and save the times that are all right
for the ones that
aren't so good.
I've never been able
to push the clouds away by myself.
Help me.
Please.
- from "The Sea",
1966
