Nostalgic moments in time ...

Life is full of nostalgic moments

and memories of places been to

and things done with loved ones,

delicacies shared with friends

that tug at the heart strings

and bring a smile to our lips ...

So make memories whenever we can

to keep us company, whenever we can't:

For us to remember and to recall

these precious moments in time

that are forever etched

in our hearts and in our minds ...

When one is sick ...

When one is sick,
life is seen in a different light:
When one is sick,
everything goes slow motion ...
That is when life is viewed
so slowly, and clearly,
that every little detail is savoured,
to its last flavour ...
for never has nescafe tasted so sweetly,
nor a walk amidst the dew drops so heavenly -
as when one has to lie weakly on the couch,
and watch the world go by, with great reproach
hear the peals of laughter in the distance -
and feel so helplessly lonely with remorse ...
