Planes

Clusters of fluff,
for all the world they look like cotton wall
clouds dispersed out in random order but somehow with a uniform look.

They are changing colour quickly
from pink, orange and a hue of red.
The flight is not long about 45 minutes
On the way back we see the Bumberry Mountain, the Nepean river and a long and winding cliff face in the blue mountains

The planes wing titanium white glow is fading as the setting sun takes away the view.

It was night flight on the way up and we only get a little of the day on the way back.
But it is exquisite.

Darkness folds
no house light below
it lasts a good 10 minutes
then little houses and villages flick into view.

It's such a contrast as you see the city sprawl form the outside in.
A farm leads up to a village a village into to town a town weaves into a city and suddenly the ground is full of lights.

The road back from the mountains looks crazy, Glowing lights look like a snaking river but it's a stopped stream.
Glad I'm up here and not down there.

The city lights are pretty, they always take my head somewhere else
into the land of wonder, awe and excitement
It feels a bit like I did when the circus came to Parkes when I was a kid
all the glitter.

We slink round the coast it would be pretty in the light,
only minutes now till touchdown.
I do get a little woozy on take off and landings
so my gal is pressing on the acupuncture point to keep it all calm
.
The engines roar then start to slow the runway lights are close then we hit
plane gigs a bit as it kisses the ground
I'm home and the country is once again over the mountains and far away

See you later.

dreams

I remembered what my dream was that got me last night. I dreamt my Mum and Dad were in a car accident and they both died.

Orange version

aren't they pretty

New Shoes

These are my new shoes got a pair of Adidas Kanadia TR . Found out they also come in bright orange may have to get them as well. So far they are a very light shoe to wear. You hardly notice you have them on. When i was younger i used to wear Adidas all the time. Guess I'm going back to old habits

Random

I feel a bit random
like things just don't gel
Messy thoughts floating
fleeting, rolling by.

I know the reason why
but it really doesn't matter
The sensation will pass
but for now this randomness
I don't mind.

It's not manic
it's not stressed
it's not even over loud
they're just roaming round my mind.

It will settle
as i do
nothing to fuss about
let it run it's course.

Never know what i'll find
amongst these stringy thoughts.

Niece

Went shopping today for my nieces bd. Got her a star projector. It will put a light display onto her wall and ceiling.

"All the wonders of the world spread out before you
take a breath.
Let your dreams have thoughts and motion.
Do you ever look skyward and wonder?

I do and have but not the questions of creation, big bang gal through and through.
I wonder why they left us alone.

Did they see the decay, the dread the malice that overfolds all the good.
It only takes one bad act to erase all the beauty."

now thats a bit random ain't it. guess i need coffee.

I also need new joggers. I hate shoe shopping. I have such a hard time finding shoes and I'm a bit over asics. the back heel support seems to fail at about the 4 month old stage. Which is really annoying seeing how much they cost.



So

dreaming


this is what can happen to you if you're a very active dreamer and you dream you're pointing at someone. you poke yourself in the fucking eye. Did it hurt, yep it woke me up. My eyeball was sore for a day and a half.

Tired

Still waking up. Long slow start to the day.

My head feels fuzzy,
My eyes have that slightly blurry focus
The coffee hasn't kicked in,
YET.

Food will help.

I burnt my first lot of toast.
Opened up the back door to let the smoke out
Time for a second go i think.
The eggs are cooked.

I wished we had butter,
There's something bout, toast, butter and eggs.

Maybe another coffee.
