The Art of Survival

The shifting
Cultural paradigm and the
Art of survival
Unleashing the hidden talents and
Creativity in the nick of time

Living
Under a different sun
I find
A home, away from home and
Spring flowers at their best

She
Held my hand ever so
Gently
As she drank from the
Fountain of youth

The lost boy
Breathes new life into
The ‘hood
Dancing to the sound of
A different drum

Thinking
Of the turning tide
How exciting
The changing times
Can be?

Spring
Harvest with a view
But where’s
The funky soul food for
The poor and the homeless?
