Letter from Australia
This is a weekly update from Australia, written by a person who has a tendency to ramble (one of the main features of bloggers, maybe?). Inspired by the one and only Alistair Cooke, recently departed in April 2004, age 95.

The Return
Talk is so cheap
Rhetoric, just as dear
Money's to be made everywhere
Open your eyes and dispel your fear
You already know what work
and what doesn't for you
Listen to others' counsel
But the final task is yours to do
Regard others in truth
But also love yourself
Worry not about the future
For within you is real wealth
Life is full of trivial pursuits
Dispense with them fast
Seize the memorable times
Lengthen them; make them last
True sustenance that inspires
For a lifetime, is made
Of fleeting seconds
Never let them fade
The return to hustle and bustle
Is impending but in a while
Cherish the last quiet moment
Stow the memories in your organic file
