[The following clarion call was kindly shared with us by Happy Cow's good friend Simon Drew. When he is not busy stock-taking in the back room of a shop which isn't there, Simon can be found dividing totality and totalling divisions, turning grey skies into blue, holding out for a hero 'til the morning light and running the online groups English Stuff and International Monthly Hatstand Day. When the dust storm settles, why not leave a comment at the bottom of this page.

Or if you are left with nothing to say, just click on the 'Like' button instead. Enjoy!]
Call it cloud or mist
or call it rain
call call calling
calling to return
nothing leads you away
there are no ways
a small frog sits in its pond
watching the rain fall
call call calling
calling down the rain
and I
on this dusty path
watch the wind take it this way and that
then a rainbow
then a dust storm
"I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever." J Krishnamurti
