This was written again in Jeddah after a heavy nights drinking in the Smoking Sandal. It received mixed reviews when I attended my last meeting at Saudi AA. Although the leader said I was making progress.
In the deepest abyss of lifes darkest shades of the soul.
Lie furrows of pain.
Dormant, yet ready to awaken and plough their message
for all eternity on the fabric of your mind.
And yet. How to perceive a lighter colour.
That we may mix and temper the severity of this shade.
And look upon life in a lighter hue.
To gently smooth the imprint of reality.
And once again renewed.
Open forever the shutters of darkness.
On the windows of our soul.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My family are like stars in the night sky of my life.
Always there at the end of the day.
The light of their love forever constant as the Northern star.
Safely guiding me home.
Dreams are the realities of tomorrow.
Everyone is in tune with the spirits of their ancestors. Unfortunately some are tone deaf.
