(self isolation and the pandemic that was 2020)
So you see this is precisely why
we need art
we need art and artists, authors and musicians
we need paintings and photographs, sculpture and pottery
we need movies, musicals and mirth
we need songs and symphonies
we need books, words and poetry
oh my dears, we Need poetry
we need pencils and crayons
brushes and chalk
we need wandering minds and keyboards to tap
we need strings for strumming and beats
to be
hit
we need ivories to tickle
and funny bones intact
we need the wise and the winsome
we need humour and hindsight
we need grace and the gracious
we need mystical and magical and
odd
we need creative minds and dreamers of dreams
we need beautiful things
and beautifying
things
… and things that shine
we need some
consideration
and loads
of
imagin…
ation
we need a lot of kindness
and
calm
a certain amount of peace
a great deal of
compassion
and heaps and heaps of love
and cake
we also
need
cake ♥
keep well my friends, keep well …
