There is a way to view things at an angle that is practiced in a monastery by monks of a new order.

The angle is a closely guarded secret.

Students spend thirteen months either in one stretch or divided into two visits, to learn the angles.

Some slightly nefarious characters also use “the angles”, but they are not the same, not one bit.

One wonders, does it really take so long to learn? In any case, the views from the monastery are magnificent.

It was always the velvet pouch the gems were delivered in on that famed day, that pouch was more treasured and loved than the extraordinary sparkling jewels.

Years later, at the age of thirty-three, the pouch was still in good but well-handled condition.

But who owned what?

Was the owner of the pouch in their mid-thirties the same person as the owner of the gems?

A thought, an important question, and we may just possibly, discover the answer one day!

Drizzling words onto the page like a chef in ecstasy.

Bake for two hours, glaze, grill and serve.

In all bookstores – there are some if you look – now.

When did we store the bestseller mathematicians in the deep freeze?

They offer wool coats and tip-top bright red braces next door.

Life as a shopping expedition, and a walk in the deep forest off the tracks.

Fresh air people.

The developer worked wonders.

The solution.

The co-ordination.

Driven by rangers and fed by old-time wagon wheel cooks, the distances were stellar and spacy.

Using only an oblique nib we wrote the seven wonders, the foundations and a few songs.

I really did not know what to say, so I smiled. That smile said everything I would have expressed in a long night’s conversation reviewing every aspect, trying hard to point out the good things yet to come.

Never thought I knew “how to smile” in that way.

When you need to, you can. Like the sands of time, the merry prankster or the sun rising.

All this, no need for a sponsor, not a shuffled step.

The moon started the story, the sun revealed chapters and the soft breeze brought all the supplies that fit.
