love

cyclamen and loss

Each Autumn, your tuberous roots stretch their arms after their long summer sleep. Your wooded stems become rich and strong with purples and green, with new life. And each year, as naked trees stand against darkening skies and evenings drawing in, your blooms rise above your heart-shaped leaves, bringing a bold defiant cheer to the leaking conservatory of my aging grandmother’s house. These past years, her arthritic fingers, in last vestige of their nimble past, deftly trimmed you of fading […]

my huckleberry friend

It isn’t possible to promise those we love continuous health, happiness, prosperity or freedom from heartbreak. But In the end, all our loves need, is us. Our grace. We are the thread that binds them to life’s joys.

dancing raspberries and empty trains

Do you remember? You had been away for what seemed like an age. Your assignment was on its third extension.  We had been apart over a year. You wrote me a letter. It has stayed with me, always. I treasure these passages, in particular – they are pages from our love’s holy book. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My love, the distance between us is but a single breath. Think of this… Empty train When I was working in London, traveling into the city […]

my favourite colour

There is no colour called love in this world.

The earliest cave art speaks to us. We sense the human continuum of which we are all part. We can almost touch the moment, millennia ago, when a man or woman’s experience, thought, emotion […]

love knows no boundary

‘human relationships are as vast as desert’ ‘…stones, even, are smoother for the dust’ – Patrick White, from the novel Voss (1957)   The place in which we spend more time than any other, is our thoughts, our inner world. It is there that we constantly converse with ourselves, from infancy to death. It is there that we suffer; unspoken traumas, ancient anxieties and caustic self-blame – all dust storms in our deserts of heart and mind that shape and […]

keeping it real

Every day, we are bombarded with media images of ‘success’. Cars, houses, holidays, clothes, jewelry, fashion and technology accessories. The more success, the more romance. Success is the pathway to true love and all of its satisfactions. But this story bears little or no resemblance to most real relationships.  In them, we struggle with the gritty challenges of work, financial pressures, child-raising, exhaustion and banality. We endure the inevitable conflicts that arise when people live and suffer through life’s challenges […]

we are one

Every leaf of every forest throughout time has been unique – yet every leaf has been part of the whole, has only had existence, sustenance and meaning, because of that whole.

essence

  Essence and our writing Our single most important goal in the writing we do for our clients is to capture and express the essence of the people concerned:  we tune into what is unique about you and the love you share, your nature;  we follow the compass of your heart.  This is not poetry as ornament or academic pretension.  This is the poetry of your life, the unique and beautiful heat and heart of your life. This is you, […]
