About Me

My photo
I am often described as quirky and eclectic. I certainly do have a pretty broad sense of music, fashion, book and film taste. Depends where the mood takes me. One week I might be feeling rather 50's and listen to broadway musicals and drink neat rum watching old movies . Sometimes I am feeling 70s and will listen to Jimi Hendrix and wear flowers in my hair. I have a penchant for 70s/80s rock, musical numbers, jazz and folk, reading poetry and drinking wine and sometimes hard liquor. I do enjoy a lucky strike though often I am on the tobacco. I think I am a hippy, country girl at heart and love to be in the natural world, I love walking barefoot, hugging trees and lying in long grass. I love dancing in the rain and swimming in the sea and rivers. I like to spend my time devouring books, buying postcards, writing letters, looking around bookshops, watching films, listening to music, going on walks, a nice glass of wine, cooking, writing poetry and short stories, doing mad dancing and making people happy. I also love to sleep.

I love this poem

CHARLIE DANIELS:

A brief candle; both ends burning
An endless mile; a bus wheel turning
A friend to share the lonesome times
A handshake and a sip of wine
So say it loud and let it ring
We are all a part of everything
The future, present and the past
Fly on proud bird
You're free at last.

written en route to the funeral for his friend, Ronnie Van Zant of the band, Lynyrd Skynyrd.
