Howling winds in drenching pain
Across the Fiji Islands fanned
A cyclone's thrust to kiss the surf
Where once she walked the shifting sands
...
We want to take our Country back
To times of yore..that part of when
…..Simple days…..of yesteryear….
Life so…uniquely….different then
...
.......My friend......
Indeed you've been my friend
Through all these years
Spanning when

A whimsical moment with 'Welcome, ' the musing sculpture gracing
the grounds at Napa Valley's Robert Mondavi Winery, Oakville California.

Whatever the anguish
That grief I share
Any burdens you have
Together we'll bear
...
The artist..the legend
The sphere in flight
Sounds of the faithful
Screaming delight
...
Shadows of the evening
Morning sun..all erased
Earth..compelled by something
Revolves again in space
