All your life you are dreaming

and then you stop dreaming

to get out and be a participant –

and you’ll be meeting all sorts

as G. F. Handel conducts the first Messiah in Dublin

but being somewhat sceptical I phoned a religious leader.

Happy birthday Samuel Beckett –

believe me, there is more than so

that works such wonders in the minds of men

so let us be happy,

let us celebrate!

When the days they seem to fall through you,

well, just let them go.

This can be a perfect day

to host a get-together

as Thomas Edison’s motion picture ‘peep show’

reveals a spritely number in fine disarray.

Happy birthday Julie Christie.

The mirage of the desert

is fairer than its sands.

The nature of mind

is the nature of everything.
