A great love



Thursday July 2nd, Berkelouw Books Newtown, 10.02 am

To breathe in your history
to run my fingers
along your dusty spine,
yellow wood, smudged ink -
To see great stories
take shape,
to be -
for a still moment
an emblem for 
humanity.
Celebrating
past, present, 
future -
to tell reality to go walk around the block
and let my eyes,
my nose,
my heart -
dance.
Will you join me?

I can just see you swanning around Newtown with a Polariod camera! Thank you for taking us with you.

Hello -

I've had to change my email address, and my blog along with it. If you'd like to read occasionally, the address is www.lizziederksen.blogspot.com. Although I haven't been commenting [I don't have internet at home, and check things in snatches on public computers], I read your posts often. They are as lovely as ever.
