the meaning of distractions...

 

My daughter's beautiful dog Bella is always alert...

Distractions are often not mere distractions but may emerge as worthwhile cautions...

I have taken a leaf from her guru diary...

Lately I have not been writing poetry, daily, but more time consuming mini drama scripts...

They are based on Temora's Urban Myths using Bill Speirs publication...

Who knows where this distraction may lead, 

but initially, the script will be used on 31st October 

in my special Temora exhibition of art then and now...

where arts communicate and create a special ecosystem of want and need...

map out your future...

Love the ever-changing, interesting signs outside shops in main street, Temora, NSW.
Today, I found this one outside Nel's Fabric Place - a quote from Jon Bon Jovi...

but do it in pencil'... pic.twitter.com/nlMVgRfb5h
