history washes away

Hi! I'm new to this wonderful world of exchange and dialogue but I sense its power and possibility.
As a start I would like to suggest a thought for the day -

Apostles

12 Apostles at the ocean
One more sunset, another million years
Contemplating the situation
Mother city holding back her tears

Every grain of sand holds a solution
Every single day

Same river different water
A billion litres flowing to the sea
Negotiating irrigation
Diplomatic challenge, Africa adio

Every drop of water to the ocean
History washes away

(from a song written in Perth WA ~ 2002)

Wow - didn't realise you also did evocative poetry, Reini. There's such a lot of talent packed into one nice guy! Piano Ben
