Eternity


LIFE is GOOD
and so offers
Love
Inspiration
Freedom
Eternity
We each are the bearers of its gifts

Much love to you and yours
for each moment
present and eternal
2010.

Chinese Character for Eternity (Yung)
"This simple and poetic character for eternity- formed around the image of running 'water,' with the two horizontal strokes 'denoting form and ripples' - contains the seven fundamental strokes in calligraphy, from which every character in the Chinese language can be made." "The Spirit of the Chinese Character," Barbara Aria with calligraphy by Russell Eng Gon.



A Gift

for anyone who enjoys the play of words

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.
~Robert Frost
~
and so the echoes of heart, soul, and quest, be heard...
