this is a brilliant write My dear friend Tinka
AHHHH! how beautiful it is to dream those daring dreams
To search for that wonderful "If"
We all have been there at one time or another
I too possess a few "ifs"
Love & peace be with you

Zero can be everything when you present us with a canvas such as this, Tinks. The longing is immortal and yet could be quenched in the blink of an eye. I hope such a blink happens for you, perhaps when you least expect it! Time is such a funny thing... unquantifiable and yet governing everything in our spatial world. But there is no space between the beats of your heart. Straight from the soul is this. Love, Kate xx
